Who are they los jugadores con más de 1000 matches? Rogerio Ceni es un hombre récord por excelencia. Theirs is the record 112 goles lo que le convierte en the highest scoring goalkeeper in history. Ceni jugó 1272 matches lo que le convierte en el tercer jugador con más partidos oficiales jugados por detrás de otros 2 janitors. Englishmen Shilton (1401) Y Bastock (1284).

Un caso realmente llamativo y sobresaliente habida cuenta de que la FIFA tan sólo reconoce a unos pocos players above the barrier 1000 official meetings. Peter Shilton led a full and porters and British players list next to point out one thing: goalkeepers are the most long-lived and in the British Isles the race holds more. Messi que sigue en activo, entró en la lista de los 1000 official matches ante Australia en Qatar 2022.

Otros de los futbolistas que pasan de los 1000 partidos y siguen en activo, son Gigi Buffon y Andrés Iniesta. For lovers of statistics, Here is the list of men who exceeded 1000 official meetings según la FIFA.
