About This Quiz
Pelé's panache, Maradona's hand of God and Messi's jinking were images which instilled in us a passion for this game on afternoons of youth. Beckham bending it in the way that he alone could or Iker Casillas committing himself across goal?
This quiz offers a chance to look back at great strikers, speedy wingers and goalkeepers that shook stadiums and stirred wild nights of applause. Now and then a haircut, a grin or a signature celebration routine can be enough to unlock a name you thought you had forgotten.
Call it football or soccer, it all comes down to recognizing old friends and seeing how many heroes you can name before the whistle blows.
