# Gerd Müller

> Gerd Müller turned the six-yard box into a killing floor. The math was simple and brutal: 68 goals in 62 games for West Germany, 365 in 427 for Bayern Munich, a World Cup record that stood for three decades. He didn't dribble through defenses - he just knew where the ball would arrive before it did.

## Bio

Born 3 November 1945, Müller spent 15 years at Bayern Munich, where his instinct in tight spaces made him the Bundesliga's all-time leading scorer - a record that still stands. In 1970 he won the Golden Boot with ten goals at the World Cup, then claimed the Ballon d'Or. Two years later he scored twice in the final to win the European Championship. In 1974 he put in the winner in the World Cup final, capping a tournament where he added four more goals. His 14 World Cup goals held as the record for 32 years, and among all-time international scorers his goal-per-game ratio remains near-untouchable: 0.97 in the European Cup, over a goal a game for his country. Pelé named him to the FIFA 100 in 2004. Müller died 15 August 2021.
