Olympic athletes who had their medals revoked

It's not uncommon for Olympic athletes to have their medals taken as soon as they get them, or sometimes years later. The International Olympic Committee (IOC), which oversees the games, can rescind medals, especially if athletes have violated Olympic regulations. Most of the time, athletes get their medals stripped for doping infractions. But medals have also been revoked for other reasons, like an athlete being too young and a score adjustment. Curious? Click on for the athletes who've had their Olympic medals taken away.

Who is the top goal scorer of all time?

Goal scoring rankings are not as straightforward as one might think. The ranking of the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS) is the most popular one, and the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are known to be at the top. According to the IFFHS, Cristiano Ronaldo has just become the first man to score 900 career goals in official matches. The milestone was achieved during Portugal’s UEFA Nations League group stage match against Croatia on September 5. Setting a remarkable high bar at age 39, Cristiano Ronaldo leads the IFFHS ranking leaving behind his longtime rival Lionel Messi (838 goals) and Brazilian legend Pelé (762 goals). There is, however, another ranking, which uses a different methodology. We're talking about the Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation (RSSSF) ranking. According to this ranking, Cristiano Ronaldo stands in fourth place (for now). In this gallery, you'll get to know the top goal scorers in soccer history, according to the RSSSF.
