Klinsmann is one of the few players to have scored in every major international tournament he contested, including the World Cup and European Championship. He was named to the FIFA 100 list of the greatest living footballers in 2004. His 1990 World Cup victory and 1996 European Championship win place him among Germany's most decorated players. As a manager, his third-place finish at the 2006 World Cup is credited with revitalizing German football.
