Two players have scored in four different men's World Cups. One of them was Uwe Seeler, whose final World Cup goal was this date at Estadio Nou Camp in Leon, Mexico. The goal came in the 82nd minute of the quarterfinal against England, tying the score at 2-2. Germany won in overtime, 3-2, exacting revenge for the famous loss to England in the '66 Cup final. Seeler did not score in the semi-final loss to Italy or the consolation win over Uruguay.
So who was the other player to score in four World Cups? The obvious choice would be the correct choice: Pele, whose last World Cup goal was on week after Seeler's, in Brazil's 4-1 victory over Italy in the final.
