Helps us select the best number 11 in football history:

We continue with the challenge of constructing with your help the best football team in history. To do this, we have drawn up a list of legendary players based on the number they have worn throughout their football career.

This time we focus on number 11. For those of us who started playing a few years ago, eleven was the number playing on the far left of the attacking team. Those players who ran the band in speed to kick the ball with the left leg. They were generally thin and fast players, with good dribbling and difficult to capture in long runs.

Help us select the best number 11 in football history. Eleven, a mythical number, full of symbolism. 11 players play soccer and traditionally number 11 closed the lineup. Great football legends have worn this number and we want to choose the best to configure our best 11 in the history of football. Thanks for helping us #Retrofootballers.

Mejores 11

The mechanics of the contest will be simple: we have drawn up a pre-selection of 16 players (round of 16) who have worn number 11 in their career with the national team or with their club. These soccer legends will face individual duels to continue advancing in the tournament table. You can vote in the "stories" of the retrofootball instagram account (link). The tournament starts on Thursday, June 4 at 2:00 p.m., among all the participants we will raffle a vintage football shirt from retrofootball®’s collection.


COMPETITION TABLE:

Below we present the tournament table for our Best Nº # 11. You will find in the draw players of the amazing quality like Francisco Gento, the “galerna of the north” (with 6 European Cups under his belt), Karl-Heinz Rummenigge (the good one) or that mythical cartoon player named Romario. We leave you below the table of duels for the tournament. We are looking for the best number 11 in the history of football and you are going to decide who wins.
