Two players share the record for playing in the most World Cups; Mexico's Antonio Carbajal (1950–1966) and Germany's Lothar Matthäus (1982–1998) both played in five tournaments.[50] Matthäus has played the most World Cup matches overall, with 25 appearances.[51] Brazil's Pelé is the only player to have won three World Cup winners' medals (1958, 1962, and 1970),[52] with 20 other players who have won two World Cup medals.[53]

The overall top goalscorer in World Cups is Brazil's Ronaldo, scorer of 15 goals (1998–2006). Germany's Miroslav Klose (2002–2010) and West Germany's Gerd Müller (1970–1974) are second, with 14 goals.[54] The fourth placed goalscorer, France's Just Fontaine, holds the record for the most goals scored in a single World Cup. All his 13 goals were scored in the 1958 tournament.[55]

Brazil's Mário Zagallo and West Germany's Franz Beckenbauer are the only people to date to win the World Cup as both player and head coach. Zagallo won in 1958 and 1962 as a player and in 1970 as head coach.[56] Beckenbauer won in 1974 as captain and in 1990 as head coach.[57] Italy's Vittorio Pozzo is the only head coach to ever win two World Cups (1934 and 1938).[58] All World Cup winning head coaches were natives of the country they coached to victory.

As of the end of the 2006 tournament, Brazil and Germany have both played 92 matches, the most by any nation, with Brazil scoring the most goals, 201.[59] The two teams have played each other only once in the World Cup, in the 2002 final.
