7 players involved. Greatest team goal. 1970 Final. The perfect Brazil goal.
Carlos Alberto's thunderous finish in the 1970 World Cup Final capped the greatest team goal in tournament history. The move involved seven Brazilian players, starting with a Pelé hold-up, before Clodoaldo dribbled through four Italians, Rivelino played a one-two with Jairzinho, and Alberto—the right back—arrived late to hammer a diagonal shot past Enrico Albertosi. This 4-1 demolition of Italy showcased the most dominant international side, and Alberto's goal is 40% more collaborative than any other on this list, outshining #4 Bergkamp's solo effort for sheer team brilliance. It required only 12 seconds from start to finish.
