I got Pele and Messi... then got Muller only because I was guessing common surnames. I missed Maradona by one "a", and missed Donovan because scanning the list of countries I didn't see the USA was on the list. Never heard of all but 4 of these guys.

You ought to learn about the history of the game you think you know so much about then... The game has been called soccer since the 19th century, and was just as common a word in Britain for the game as the name "football" for most of the 20th century. Many of the game's top players had the word "soccer" in the title of their autobiographies (e.g. George Best). Watch some old Pathe news videos of matches - the word "soccer" is used a lot.

Marek Hamsik was equalled by Dries Mertens, so maybe accept both?
+6
Level 64
Jun 19, 2020
Dries Mertens (122) has now surpassed Marek Hamsik (121) for Napoli, so this should probably be updated i guess
+2
Level 61
Aug 19, 2020
true, mertens is now on 125
+1
Level 73
Sep 15, 2020
That one does stick out like a sore thumb. The rest all ‘big’ European clubs and or very famous players. Whilst Napoli are a decent side and Mertens is a great player, both are probably a level below everyone else on the list.

Though having looked at some other big clubs, AC Milan and Ajax etc, it looks like their too scorers are less well known.

+3
Level 72
Sep 23, 2020
Napoli used to be on that quiz for the very easy Diego guess.

Now it's a little bit more interesting for the sake of the quiz, but Diego pretty much flooded the newsreel when Dries got the record over Hamšík, as he adores him, so a lot of soccer fans have heard about this.

Even as a Belgian I was surprised about Mertens. I typed Maradona and then thought 'surely it can't be Mertens?' and guessed him that wat

Please make "Ibra" work for Ibrahimovic

Dec 2, 2021
Why?

His name is Ibrahimovic.

We're also not calling Benzema 'Benze', right?

+1
Level 74
Dec 2, 2021
Yeah, I agree with Niels. "Ibra" is not even a nickname, but rather a shorter version of his family name (not a very common one according to my experience) and shouldn't be accepted!

Next time you update this quiz, you may want to consider adding Canada's Christine Sinclair.

Her 189 international goals (at the time of writing) is the record for both women and men.

According to FC Barcelona's page in Wikipedia Lionel Messi scores 672 goals for the club and that is correct with official Barca statistics so there is a mistake in your quiz.
