Subject: Just Fontaine: Former France striker and World Cup record holder dies aged 89
Written By: Philip Eno on 03/01/23 at 5:27 am
Just Fontaine, who holds the record for the most goals scored at a single World Cup, has died at the age of 89.
Fontaine scored 13 goals in just six matches for France at the 1958 World Cup in Sweden as they finished third.
He is joint-fourth on the all-time World Cup goalscorers list alongside Argentina's Lionel Messi.
"A star of French football, an outstanding striker, a legendary Reims player," said his former club Stade de Reims.
