Romario de Souza Faria (born January 29, 1966 in Rio de Janeiro) was one of the best strikers of all-time, but he went to ridiculous lengths to try and claim he had scored 1000 goals. There can be no doubt that Romario scored lots of goals. The Brazilian marksman found the net in pretty much every game he played for PSV and then managed to do the same in a proper league for Barcelona. However, the key to Romario’s frightening goal tally was spending much of his career in Brazil, where games routinely have a rush goalkeeper because nobody much fancies it playing between the sticks.
