5. Garrincha
While Pele was the media darling and star of Brazil’s 1958 and 1962 World Cup-winning squads, Garrincha was the talented marvel who went largely overlooked by the media. The lack of press coverage came despite – or maybe because of – his strange background that included a battle with alcoholism at 14 years of age and reportedly losing his virginity to a goat. Fortunately for Garrincha, the tryst with the goat wasn’t his only foray into sexual activity. He fathered a total of 14 children with a number of different women during his productive career.
