Why Doris Fitschen ranks #153 in Football

Doris Fitschen ranks 153rd among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 301st of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 89, Longevity 84, Honours 90, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Football reference universe of 895 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1986–2001 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1996, which sets the Peak component at 89. Honours is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes european championship titles 4, germany caps 144, olympic medals 1, bundesliga titles 2.

Immediately ahead sits Kevin De Bruyne on 85.7, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Chloe Kelly on 85.7. 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.
