Nazario de Lima Luis was born on September 22 1976 and played in the '98, '02 and '06 editions. He has scored 15 goals in all of FIFA World Cup Finals. Who are we talking about?
Ronaldo of Brazil
When Edson Arantes do Nascimento saw his father crying after his country lost the FIFA World Cup, he told him: “Don't worry. One day I'll win it.” And he did. Thrice. Who are we talking about?
Pele
He is an African football icon, who exploded on to the international scene (from retirement) at the ripe old age of 38. With the Italia 90 finals looming the national press began clamouring for his return. He even received a phone call from the President himself pleading with him to come out of retirement and answer his country's call. He did. At Italia 90 he endeared himself to fans with his bursts of pace, clever tactical play and, of course, that hip-wiggling Makossa dance around the corner flag with which he celebrated each of his four goals. In the process he became the oldest goal scorer in the tournament's history. Who are we talking about?
Roger Milla
He is known by a series of colourful nicknames, including El Pibe de Oro (The Golden Boy) and Barrilete Cosmico (Cosmic Kite). After retiring, he had a successful run as a TV chat show host. His fans have even started a Church in his honour. Who are we talking about?
Diego Maradona
Who is the first man to win the FIFA World Cup as captain and as coach?
