Explanation

Franz Beckenbauer of Germany is the only player to have won all three types of World Cup medals: gold as captain in 1974, silver in 1966, and bronze in 1970. This remarkable achievement spans three different World Cup tournaments. Pelé won three gold medals (1958, 1962, 1970) but never silver or bronze. Eusébio never reached the final, and Just Fontaine's best performance was third place in 1958.
