Seriously, what's L'Équipe's criteria for this ranking? How come Gerson is not on the list. What have Messi and Neymar won for their national teams to make the list? Why a classy keeper like Taffarel is not here but a domestic, humble club idol like Chilavert is? We'll probable never know...

Chilavert scored numerous free kicks and penalties. that's what made him special. Although I agree that Taffarel should be in the list.
