In 1958, Pele would become the youngest World Cup scorer ever, striking at his first tournament at the age of just 17. Years later, Roger Milla would become the oldest World Cup scorer at 42 years old.
You could fit a lifetime in between those ages. The average footballer could feasibly and realistically aim to make four World Cup tournaments – even then, that's ambitious – but if the same person wants to break both Pele's and Milla's records (and play in every World Cup in between)… they'd have to play in eight whole World Cups.
Eight. And that's without Arsene Wenger's proposal for tournaments every two years. Since 1998, the bar isn't quite so extreme – meaning the record for the youngest and oldest since '98 has been broken in 2022.
We've listed out those at either end of the spectrum. Can you name the top 20 for each?
