Roberto Carlos –
There are very few fullbacks who can also bolster into attack modes when required and manage to score some spectacular goals. Brazil’s Roberto Carlos is one such deadly player whom most wingers feared.
Having scored as many as 65 goals and an uncountable number of interventions, Carlos became famous as the fullback who also attacked. The full-back blasted his way into football history with a stunning “Banana” free-kick which almost reached a speed of 105 miles/hr, a swerving effort against France that left Fabian Barthez and the entire world dumbfounded.
