The longest-named player in the World Cup is none other than Greece, and most of their players have a name that can't be read in one breath. Most of the players in the Greek team have names ending with "S", and there is a passage that says that if the name of any player does not end with "S", it is likely that the ancestors are not Greek.
In the last World Cup, a Player of the Greek Team became the longest-named player in the World Cup, with a 25-letter super-long name called Lazaros Christodoulopoulos, a defender who now plays for Athens Aek F.C. in the Greek Super League. He also has a 24-letter teammate, Sokratis Papastathopoulos. Greece conceded a goal in the opening five minutes of the first match against Colombia, with some joking that perhaps the announcer hadn't finished reading the player's name yet. But this is only the official name used by the official in the game, if you really want to say the full name, many Brazilians or Portuguese full names are not shorter than this, such as the king of the ball "pele", which is actually just his nickname, meaning "legendary", his real name is edson arantes do nascimento, with 24 letters.
The full name of the "alien" Ronaldo Luiz nazario de lima also has 24 letters. Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro has a longer name, with up to 31 letters. Among them, Cristiano Ronaldo is his first name, Dos Santos is the surname of Ronaldo's mother, and Aveiro is the surname of Ronaldo's father. The full name of Junior Juninho is even more frightening, antonio augusto ribeiro reis junior pernambucano juninho, 50 letters!
Due to the limited position of the jersey, it is impossible to print the full name, so many players use the abbreviation of the name on the jersey, and it is ironic that there are also more real people who require their own surname to be printed on the jersey, the former Dutch shooter Jan vennegoor of hesselink, every time he goes to a team, when asked if he can only print the abbreviation of "jan" or "v of h", he refuses, insisting that the team print his full surname "vennegoor" of hesselink", and thus, there was a spectacle behind the player's name that circled the number behind him almost a circle.
