In the quadrennial World Cup, accumulating goals is not an easy task. Maradona has only scored nine goals, while Pele has 12 goals. But with 12 goals, it only ranks fifth in World Cup history.
Today we are going to talk about the four gods in front of the ball king.
They are Klose in first place (16 goals), Ronaldo in second place (15 goals), Gedmuller in third place (14 goals), and Giustefontein in fourth (13 goals). And the four of them can also be regarded as a tacit understanding across the era, and the gap between each person and the back is 1 goal, and the equal difference between the proper football world is a series.
Fontaine's record lasted only 16 years before it was broken by Müller. Mueller's record was relatively long, and it was not broken by aliens until the new century, and this record has been maintained for 32 years. Klose broke Da Luo's record, but it only took 8 years.
The four people are ranked at 1234 respectively, and if we change the angle, maybe the four people will be ranked backwards. For example, we compare, four gods score these goals, who has participated in the World Cup the least?
We only count the World Cups in which they have scored.
Fontaine was magical because of his 13 goals, all from the 1958 World Cup. He is the holder of a single World Cup record for individual goals scored, a record that is unlikely to be broken.
In fact, Fontaine also participated in the 1954 World Cup, but that World Cup belonged to Germany and Hungary, and France and Fontaine had a very low presence. And Fontaine didn't score either. Apparently, all of Fontaine's highlights at the World Cup came from the 1958 World Cup in Sweden.
Although Gad müller scored one more goal than Fontaine, he has scored in the World Cup, two times. In the 1970 World Cup, he scored 10 goals, and in the 1974 World Cup, he scored 4 goals. Müller has only participated in these two World Cups and can score 14 goals, which is not easy. Although it is not as magical as Fontaine's single World Cup, it is also very difficult for the younger generation to surpass him.
Look at Da Luo again. Da Luo has played in four World Cups, but although Pereira brought him to the United States in 1994, he did not get a single minute, let alone score. Therefore, the World Cup that Da Luo really participated in was only 3 times. And these 3 sessions, Big Luo has scored goals.
Finally look at Klose. Klose is the representative of the diligent players, step by step, down-to-earth. He scored 5 goals in 2002, 5 goals in 2006, 4 goals in 10 years, and twice in 14 years. Klose has played in four World Cups, each of which has scored goals. However, compared with his predecessors, Klose used a little more World Cups.
Therefore, the number of World Cups in which the four gods scored World Cup goals was 4321, and the least was Fontaine. If we follow the angle we set, Fontaine is in the first place. And the number of goals scored by the four people is actually the same as the number of World Cups they actually participated in.
This is also the reason why many people think that although Fontaine was overtaken, it was never surpassed.
Admittedly, football in the black and white era must be very different from today, and it is not necessary to over-praise the ancient gods, and it also lacks technical content. But the ancient gods of Fontaine Müller did their best in the context of football at that time, and deserve to be looked up to and remembered by future generations.
