World XI: All-time greatest 100 capped players. A look at the greatest ever World XI featuring players who made at-least 100 caps for their country. Goalkeeper: Gianluigi Buffon - 137 caps Gianluigi Buffon for an extremely long time was thought of as the worlds best goalkeeper and to some one of the best ever keepers. The record caps holder for the Italian national side, Buffon has had a remarkable career, which includes a World Cup winners medal. Right-back: Cafu - 142 caps With 142 caps to his name, Cafu is the highest capped Brazilian international star of all-time. In an amazing international career, the right full-back appeared in three World Cup finals, winning two of them in 1994 and 2002. Centre-back: Bobby Moore - 108 caps the only captain that lead England to world cup glory. Centre-back: Franz Beckenbauer - 103 caps. The only player to have lifted the World Cup as a captain and a coach. Left-back: Roberto Carlos - 125 caps With 125 caps behind him, Roberto Carlos will best be remembered for his quite ridiculous free-kicks. Right-midfield: Luis Figo - 127 caps. Former Ballon dOr winner Luis Figo was one of Portugals greatest stars. Centre-midfield: Lothar Matthaus - 150 caps Breaking records all over the place, Lothar Matthaus is Germanys highest capped player (with just the 150), he has also played in 25 World Cup matches and starred in five World Cup tournaments, which is more than any other player. Centre-midfield: Zinedine Zidane - 108 caps Frenchman Zinedine Zidane will go down as one of the greatest players to have lived. A remarkable midfielder, Zidane had it all. Winning the 1998 World Cup and the European Championships of 2000, Zidane had brilliant success on the international stage. Left-midfield: Cristiano Ronaldo: 107 caps At just 28-years-old Cristiano Ronaldo has 107 caps for Portugal. That alone makes his place on this list fully deserved. And, with 43 goals for his country, Ronaldo continues to perform at the highest level. Attacking midfield: Bobby Charlton - 106 caps England legend Bobby Charlton picked up 106 caps for his country, but more importantly he helped the Three Lions to a World Cup in 1966. Striker: Jurgen Klinsman - 108 caps Jurgen Klinsman won both the World Cup and European Championships as he participated in six major tournaments. He scored in each of the six tournaments that he played in and will certainly go down as a German legend. #UK
