The 1990’s was the era of the footballing forward. Some of the most notorious and influential marksmen came to prominence during the decade, with the likes of Alan Shearer, Jurgen Klinsmann, George Weah and the almighty Ronaldo all staking their claim on the sport as the very best in the world at that time. However, there is one name which instilled more fear in opposition defenders than any other; Gabriel Batistuta. Described by Diego Maradona as the ‘finest striker he had ever seen’ the man known simply as Batigol terrorised defences for nearly twenty years in his native Argentina, Italy and Qatar, as well as on the international stage where he, up until 2016, was his country’s all-time leading goalscorer. He may only have two league titles to his name, but the way he made those in attendance feel, arguably meant more to him than any piece of silverware. This is the story of Batigol: Gabriel Batistuta.

The best!!! He can make gol in all momenti and against all!!!

Younger generation need more acknowlegde this type of super striker. Indeed he was one of the best striker who will spread fear to the backline every team in that time. Great heading, power, speed, and both his legs has the same clinical accuracy. He is danger in every penalty box. Rocket or cannon shoot are his identity. Sometimes make me thought that a ball is the real enemy everytime he kick it 😅 Absolutely the real number 9. Monster, who very humble and nice person outside of the game itself

Batistuta's shots were powerful! Great player

[@McCheetos]

My favorite player from that era. I know he wasn't the best, Ronaldo was, but he had such a heart. I'd pick him over anybody.
