Let's retrospect their glorious World Cup journeys.

Diego Maradona

No. 1 Diego Maradona (Argentina)

21 World Cup games, 8 goals

When he played for Italian Napoli, Maradona led the team to win two Serie A titles and the Uefa Cup. And as the hard core of Argentina, he earned 91 caps, scoring 34 goals, won the World Cup in 1986 and finished a runner-up in 1990, until he was disqualified from games for cocaine abuse in 1994 World Cup in the United States.

Jorge Valdano, a former Argentina team-mate, said: "He is someone many people want to emulate, a controversial figure, loved, hated, who stirs great upheaval...he has no peers inside the pitch but he has turned his life into a show and is now living a personal ordeal that should not be imitated."
