5 Players who won a World Cup despite putting in questionable contributions

Colombia v England: Round of 16 - 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia

1. Simone Barone – Italy

No one would deny the fact that Simone Barone must have been the worst World Cup winner ever. This Italian player was majorly an add-on player. Barone was very versatile and probably that helped him become, what became of him. He was an Italian squad member for World Cup 2006 and was called off the bench twice.

In fact, Barone is considered as one of the worst internationals by many Italians. The above-mentioned list is one of our compilations. People may have their own version of players who should not have won the World Cup. Let’s hope this list doesn’t change with time, and may only the best players win the game.
