Recently, the famous British football magazine "442" released the list of the top 100 stars in the history of world football.
The seat of the 108 generals in a classic Chinese novel "Water Margin" has been constantly controversial, and the ranking of characters in the same period and in the same cottage is still diverse, not to mention the list of the top 100 stars that span a hundred years and five continents and run through the history of the development of football.
Every fan has their own opinions and perceptions of football, and the so-called opinion, "442" may eventually get a thankless ending after completing this huge work.

Although Rivera has a superstar aura on his head, his way of hiding from his body against kicking has made him questionable.

Banksy's career did not have a record of playing for a big club, but the 1966 World Cup winning goalkeeper established his place in English football.
In the 1970 World Cup after England won the title, Banks saved Pele's late header and scored, which became an eternal classic moment in World Cup history, known as the "save of the century". Later, Banks fell ill before the quarter-final against West Germany, and goalkeeper Bonetti who replaced him was too far apart, and England's two-goal lead was reversed and they could not continue. Perhaps Banksy's presence on the field will be a different result.

Widely regarded as one of the best centre-backs of all time, Pazarella has a great sense of position, a ferocious tackle, and despite being less than 180cm tall, his ability to scramble for headers is excellent.
Pazarella's offensive contributions have also put many attacking positions to shame, with 175 goals in his entire career. And the glory of winning the World Cup twice is enough to eclipse the vast majority of stars in front of him.

In the 1954 World Cup, Walter scored three goals, two of which came in the final. West Germany eventually won 3-2 against Hungary, and Walter took the lead.
