teams have Fifa Ultimate Team Coins now revealed their final squads

Each of the 32 teams have Fifa Ultimate Team Coins now revealed their final squads for the World Cup and the same question which rears its head every four years comes back to the forefront: why have they brought three goalkeepers? Surely that's a waste of a shirt number...

The reason: they have no choice. Over to the antiquated article 29.3 in Fifa's World Cup regulations, which reads: "Each association shall be required to provide Fifa with a final list of 23 players, three of whom shall be goalkeepers."

So just how abnormal is it for a team to use all three of their goalkeepers at the same World Cup finals? Incredibly, out of the 393 sides who have played in the finals, only four have deployed three people between the posts in a single tournament.

The first was France in 1978, then both Belgium and Czechoslovakia in 1982, and most recently Greece in 1994. In the case of France and Greece, both sides were already out of the tournament by the time that they fielded their third keeper - the French famously playing their www.proutcoins.com last match against Hungary after borrowing green-and-white shirts from a local team.
