FΓ‘bio, the 44-year-old goalkeeper for Fluminense who kept a clean sheet against Inter yesterday, is officially the world record holder for most official matches played in football history:
FΓ‘bio Lopes β 1,371 matches
Peter Shilton β 1,364
Cristiano Ronaldo β 1,281
RogΓ©rio Ceni β 1,233
Thomas Hutchison β 1,177
Gianluigi Buffon β 1,151
Paul Bastock β 1,137
Yasuhito EndΕ β 1,132
Marcelinho ParaΓba β 1,113
Roberto Carlos β 1,111
Luka ModriΔ β 1,111
Lionel Messi β 1,107
Javier Zanetti β 1,100
There are different counts depending on the source β in some, Shilton is listed as the leader (with 1,400+), and in others it's Ronaldo. But the most reputable statistical databases point to these numbers.
Itβs very likely that Cristiano Ronaldo will eventually surpass FΓ‘bio to become the all-time leader β breaking the 1,400-match mark and possibly even scoring 1,000 goals. 2 replies
