Gerd Muller, often known as “The Bomber”, was an incredibly lethal striker, with an extraordinary goals-per-game ratio.
Muller was the top scorer in the 1970 World Cup and played a key role in West Germany’s victory in the 1974 edition, which they won on home soil. Notably, he scored 10 goals in just six matches during the 1970 tournament alone.
