Why Marco Materazzi ranks #165 in Football

Marco Materazzi ranks 165th among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 324th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 84, Honours 88, 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 1993–2011 with 19 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2003, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak 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 world cup titles 1, serie a titles 5, champions league titles 1, italy caps 41.

Immediately ahead sits Kurt Hamrin on 85.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Fabinho on 85.5. 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.
