Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Pele Soccer series (2 titles)
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    Radical Entertainment/Accolade
RELEASED:         various
TYPE:             Sports (soccer)
LANGUAGE:         English

PREMISE:          YACEG European football game featuring the endorsement
                  of the greatest player to date who has played the game.
                  The soccer entry in the Accolade Sports series.

IMPRESSIONS:      This poor man's EA Sports FIFA clone borrows (or steals)
                  a lot from its competition, including the isometric field
                  view - except that Pele's slants in the opposite
                  direction of FIFA's.  The other differences are more
                  subtle, but one gets the impression after playing for a
                  while that EA's FIFA engine is more robust and offers
                  better gameplay than Accolade's Pele engine.  Good enough
                  to recommend grabbing if you can't get your hands on any
                  of the FIFA games.

VARIATIONS:       Pele Soccer (1993)
                  Pele's World Tournament Soccer (1994, also known as Pele
                    Soccer 2 or just Pele 2 - better graphics and sound,
                    but that's about it)

Saw it by Ebay for 3 Euro.... bought it.... sorry about the 3 Euro !
The Game is one of the miserablest games i have ever played... and Pele was one of the greatest soccer players - should use his name for better products.

A little bit hard this one, great satisfaction when you score a goal but even after multiple plays you are always a minnow in comparison with your shark like opponents.

this was my favourite game as a kid. it might've been bad, but those days i didn't realize it. a thing that always dissapointed me was the absence of yellow and red cards. But still i always thought it was fun to play, I even knew lots of playernames after a while. (no real players)
