"To investigate the question of who is soccer's GOAT, fans can turn to facts and figures. The number of goals scored is an important statistic. But is it the only one that is important when evaluating a player's career? What about a player's longevity--how many games and minutes he played? What is their strike rate or goals per game? . . . How did the player perform when the stage was the biggest and the pressure was the highest? While the numbers might not reveal a clear cut winner, they may help fans reach their own conclusions about which soccer player has earned the title of the GOAT"--Provided by publisher.

From the publisher:
Soccer fans debate endlessly about which player is the GOAT, or the greatest of all time. Many fans argue over which modern-day superstar, Ronaldo or Messi, deserves to be called the best. Others insist that legendary players, such as Beckham or Pele, were the best to play the sport. Everyone has their favorite, but it is difficult to compare players from different teams and eras. Using basic and intermediate math principles, readers will explore statistics and compare each player's accomplishments. With these tools, readers will learn how to successfully use statistics to back up their favorite star.
