Eusebio in the Fifa all of Fame -733 Goals
Nicknamed The Black Panther, The Black Pearl, or O Rei (The King) in Portugal, Eusébio scored 733 goals in 745 competitive games in his career.[3] He was known for his speed and his powerful, accurate right-footed strike, making him an outstanding prolific goalscorer. He is considered Benfica's and Portugal's most renowned player and one of the first world-class African strikers. Although born in Mozambique and having an Angolan father, Eusébio could only play for the Portuguese team, like Matateu and Mário Coluna, among others, before him, since both the African countries was an Overseas territory and its inhabitants were considered Portuguese.
