Roberto Carlos was a brilliant hitter of the ball and generated an enormous amount of power from his free kicks. His free kick against France will go down as one of the greatest free kicks in football history.

Probably an unexpected player on the list who has the unique distinction of being a goalkeeper! You don't often see a goalkeeper take a free kick, let alone score!
