November 3, 1945 – Gerd Muller was born.
Of all the football careers you could dream of having as a kid, they don’t come much more complete than Gerd Muller’s.
He won the World Cup and European Championships with Germany – scoring in the final of both tournaments - as well as lifting the European Cup on three consecutive occasions with Bayern Munich.
And despite retiring from international football at the age of 28, Muller still managed to score a ridiculous 68 goals for Germany in just 62 matches.
Happy birthday to Der Bomber.
Bloody lethal…
