AC Milan's three-time Ballon d'Or winner whose 1988 European Championship final volley is widely considered the greatest international goal ever scored.
Marco van Basten's career was ended at the age of 28 by a severe ankle injury that robbed football of one of its greatest strikers. In the time he played, he scored 301 professional goals and won three Ballon d'Or awards. His volley in the 1988 European Championship final — from an impossible angle — is voted one of the greatest goals ever scored in international football.
