Cristiano Ronaldo will equal the record by playing in the tournament for the fifth time. Ronaldo, who has scored the most goals in men’s international football, has not won the World Cup to date and would probably like to achieve this feat in his last World Cup. Four players have so far played in the World Cup five times, including Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon (1998–2014), Mexico defender Rafael Marquez (2002–2018), Germany midfielder Lothar Matthaeus (1982–1998), and Mexico goalkeeper Antonio Carbajal (1950–1966). Lionel Messi of Argentina, goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa of Mexico, and midfielder Andres Guardado have also played in four World Cups.
