Why Sophia Smith ranks #185 in Football
Sophia Smith ranks 185th among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 828th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 66, Honours 78, Statistics 84. 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 2020–present with 6 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2022, 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 olympic gold medals 1, nwsl titles 1, nwsl mvp awards 1, usa goals 25.
Immediately ahead sits Park Ji-sung on 79.4, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Jay-Jay Okocha on 79.3. 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.
