'''Roberto Rivellino''' ({{IPA|pt-BR|ʁoˈbɛʁtu ʁiveˈlĩnu|lang}}; born 1 January 1946), known as just '''Rivellino''', is a Brazilian [[Association football|football]] [[pundit]] and former player who was one of the key members of Brazil's [[1970 FIFA World Cup]]-winning team.

The son of [[Italy|Italian]] immigrants from [[Macchiagodena]], [[Province of Isernia|Isernia]], he played as an [[Midfielder#Attacking midfielder|attacking midfielder]] and was famous for his iconic moustache, [[Curl (football)|bending]] [[Direct free kick|free kicks]], long range shooting, accurate long passing, vision, close ball control and [[Dribbling#Association football|dribbling]] skills.<ref>[http://www.planetworldcup.com/LEGENDS/rivelino.html Roberto Rivelino] from ''Planetworldcup.com''</ref> He also perfected a football move called the [[Flip flap (association football)|"flip flap"]], famously copied by [[Romário]], [[Mágico González]], [[Ronaldo (Brazilian footballer)|Ronaldo]], [[Ronaldinho]] and [[Cristiano Ronaldo]] in later years.<ref name="Goldblatt">David Goldblatt (2009). "The Football Book". p. 129. D Kindersley Ltd,</ref> A former [[Midfielder#Attacking midfielder|attacking midfielder]], he is widely regarded as one of the most graceful football players ever, and one of the greatest players of all time. With the close control, [[Dummy (football)#Association football|feints]] and ability with his left foot, [[Diego Maradona]] named Rivellino among his greatest inspirations growing up.<ref name="Pitch">"Football's Greatest – Rivelino". Pitch International LLP. 2012. Retrieved 8 May 2014</ref> In 2004, he was named by [[Pelé]] in the [[FIFA 100]] list of the world's greatest living players.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/3533891.stm |title=Pele's list of the greatest |publisher=BBC Sport |date=4 March 2004 |access-date=15 June 2013}}</ref>

Rivellino currently works as a pundit for [[TV Cultura]].<ref>[http://tvcultura.cmais.com.br/cartaoverde/rivellino-assina-com-a-tv-cultura Rivellino assina com a TV Cultura] at TV Cultura</ref>

==Club career==
Rivellino was born in [[São Paulo (city)|São Paulo]], and started as a [[futsal]] player at Clube Atlético Barcelona. After that, he tried his luck with Barcelona's biggest rival, [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], where he moved on to professional football and quickly became a favourite of the fans—and was therefore nicknamed "O Rei do Parque" (King of the Park) (after the club's home ground, Parque São Jorge). However, the late 60s and early 70s were one of the most troubled periods in the history of the club, which did not win a single São Paulo state league title between 1954 and 1977.
[[File:Roberto Rivelino from left and right Najeeb Al Imam in 1979 in Saudi Arabia.jpg|thumb|left|Rivellino (left) playing in Saudi Arabia in 1979]]

In 1974, after Corinthians was defeated by arch-rivals [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the São Paulo league finals, as the star player Rivellino was singled out by most fans as one of the most responsible for not winning. He moved on to [[Rio de Janeiro]], where he defended [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] until the end of the 1970s. Rivellino was undoubtedly the greatest star in the excellent Fluminense of the mid 70s, dubbed "the tricolor machine", among Doval, Pintinho, Gil and [[Carlos Alberto Torres]]. He won the Rio de Janeiro league championship in 1975 and 1976. By the end of the decade, he moved on to play for [[Al-Hilal FC|Al Hilal]] in Saudi Arabia; he retired from professional football in 1981.

==International career==

Rivellino was a key member of Brazil's [[1970 FIFA World Cup]] winning team, which is often cited as the greatest-ever World Cup team.<ref name="BBC review">{{cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/jonathanstevenson/2010/05/the_story_of_the_1970_world_cu.html|publisher=[[BBC]] |title=The Story of the 1970 World Cup|date=12 May 2010}}</ref><ref name="Brazil poll">{{cite web |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-soccer-world-best-idUSL0988846220070709|work=[[Reuters]] |title=Brazil's 1970 winning team voted best of all time|date=9 July 2007}}</ref><ref name="Independent">{{cite web |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/international/the-boys-from-brazil-on-the-trail-of-footballs-dream-team-806939.html|work=[[The Independent]] |title=The Boys from Brazil: On the trail of football's dream team|date=10 April 2010}}</ref> Wearing the number 11 jersey, Rivellino was deployed on the left side of midfield and scored three goals, including the powerful bending free-kick against [[Czechoslovakia national football team|Czechoslovakia]], which earned him the nickname "Patada Atómica" (Atomic Kick) by Mexican fans. Rivellino also played in the [[Football World Cup 1974|1974]] and [[1978 FIFA World Cup]]s, finishing in fourth and third place respectively.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20140528003216/http://www.fifa.com/tournaments/archive/worldcup/germany1974/ "Dutch take plaudits but Germany take the prize"].

==After retirement==
{{Quote box|width=30%|align=right|quote="He ([[Sérgio Echigo]]) says now that he invented it, but I perfected it" |source=—Rivellino on the [[Flip flap (association football)|"flip flap"]].<ref name="Pitch"/>}}
After his professional retirement, Rivellino started a career as a football commentator and coach (he has managed [[Shimizu S-Pulse]] in Japan's [[J. League]]). Rivellino further represented Brazil in the [[II Mundialito de Seniors|1989]] edition of the [[World Cup of Masters]], scoring in the final against Uruguay. Rivellino is sometimes credited with scoring the fastest goal in football history when he supposedly scored a goal direct from the [[Kick-off (association football)|kick-off]] after noticing the opposition goalkeeper on his knees finishing off pre-match prayers.<ref>[http://soccerlens.com/the-legends-midfielders/21863/ Football Legends: The Midfielders] at soccerlens.com</ref>

Regarding the [[2014 FIFA World Cup]] held in his country, Rivellino criticized the inclusion of the Amazonian city of [[Manaus]] with its stadium [[Arena da Amazônia]] in the hosting venues, saying "it’s absurd to play in Manaus. You start sweating the moment you leave the locker room".<ref>[http://football-italia.net/50508/rivelino-manaus-absurd-venue Rivelino: 'Manaus an absurd venue']. Football Italia. 14 June 2014</ref>
