For the .75 goal ratio there are a few answers. Puskas is one 84 in 85 appearances dumb really haha, Gerd Muller is another he had a ridiculous goal scoring ratio for West Germany of 1.09. Ali Daeli has the most international goals scored at 109 but a ratio just under the mark at .73, many guessed Pele which is correct .84 77 in 92 matches. There are also two Scandinavians with ridiculous goal scoring records Poul Nielsen of Denmark has 52 in 38!? And Sven Rydell of Sweden has 49 in 43. There are probably others, these are all I could find. I think it may be some time before a player for his country has this kind of prolific record again. The game is becoming more defensive, especially at the international level.
Going with that trend I believe it is two modern goalkeepers who hold the most clean sheets for their country. Edwin Van der Sar has a ridiculous 71 clean sheets for the Netherlands. Casillas may be up there too, he had kept 52 clean sheets as of 2009. I am pretty sure Van der Sar holds that record though. Much harder to find these kind of clean sheet records than goal scoring records haha. Peter Shilton is up there too with 66, and shares a record with Barthez(really Barthez haha) of having kept 10 WC clean sheets. If you can do some research and find someone with more than the 71 of VDS I would love to see it. Thomas Ravelli may be one to look into, as well as getting an updated number for Casillas. Most of my numbers I got from this awesome list.
p.s. Prag and Greatscott Ronaldo has 62 in 98 caps, while Kluivert has 40 in 79 both wonderful tallies, just harder to score goals in the modern international game. Look at the best player in the world right now I don't think his ratio can be above 2 in 5 for Argentina. Though he doesn't really play in that pure goal scoring role, especially for Argentina (Maradona has 34 in 91 Messi has 17 in 60). I am surprised that the leading dutch goal scorer is Patrick with 40 so many legends, Cruijff, Neeskens, Rep, Van Basten, Gullit, Bergkamp, Van Nistelrooy, Van Persie
I hold the record for being the most capped player in my native country. I have played in 4 premier league derbies in 4 different countries in Europe. I had a shot named after me, following my performance at Euro 96. I retired in 2007. Who am I?
No, not Kluivert, although I'm wondering if my clues were too general to give a legitimate guess.... I will add further clues if it seems like no one is getting close to the right answer
I hold the record for most goals scored in all competitions in one season. I was the first player to wear the number "9" in club football. I had more goals than appearances for my national team. The club for which I had the most appearances erected a statue of me outside their stadium in 2001. Who am I?
I began my playing career at Corinthians in Brazil as a defender. I moved on to Sporting Lisbon in Portugal, where I made 37 appearances. I only scored 1 goal while at Sporting; however what was unique about this goal was that it remains the fastest recorded shot in history. I now currently play alongside my brother in Germany. Who am I?
I hold the record for youngest player to ever play in the Champions League. I also hold the record for youngest player sent off from a champions league match. I have won an Olympic gold medal. Who am I?
Jesuriya on the money.... Celestine Babayaro is the right answer. Won a gold medal at the 1996 Olympics with Nigeria. First played in the champions league with Anderlecht, and became the youngest player to receive a red card in the UEFA Champions League when he was sent off in a match between Steaua Bucuresti and his club Anderlecht (1-1) at an age of 16 years and 86 days
Can you name the only four teams to win the Champions League without being the reigning domestic champions in their country? In what years were these feats accomplished?
That would be the champions league as it currently exists; most of the teams have already been mentioned above by TheBarcaShow AC Milan (2002-2003, 2006-2007), Liverpool (2004-2005), Real Madrid (1999-2000, 2001-2002)
Outside of the traditional powerhouses of Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay, what is the best placed finish for a South American team at the World Cup? Which year was it in?
