Why Berti Vogts ranks #100 in Football
Berti Vogts ranks 100th among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 324th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 84, Honours 88, Statistics 82. Those categories are normalised against the full Football reference universe of 909 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1965–1979 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1971, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world cup titles 1, european championship titles 1, bundesliga titles 5, germany caps 96.
Immediately ahead sits Edinson Cavani on 83.8, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Franck Ribéry on 83.6. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
