'''Just Louis Fontaine''' (18 August 1933{{dash}}28 February 2023) was a French professional [[association football|footballer]] who played as a [[Striker (association football)|striker]]. He scored the most goals ever in a single edition of the [[FIFA World Cup]], with thirteen in six matches in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|1958 tournament]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Kaufman |first=Michelle |url=http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/05/23/1643500/countdown-to-the-world-cup.html |title=Countdown to the World Cup – Total Soccer, Fútbol Total |publisher=MiamiHerald.com |access-date=28 April 2011}}</ref> In March 2004, [[Pelé]] named him one of his [[FIFA 100|125 Greatest Living Footballers]] at a [[FIFA]] Awards Ceremony.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/3533891.stm |title=Pele's list of the greatest |publisher=BBC Sport |date=4 March 2004 |access-date=18 November 2013 }}</ref>

==Football career==
[[File:Just Fontaine en 1958.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Fontaine at the [[1958 FIFA World Cup]].]]
Born in [[Marrakesh|Marrakech]], French Morocco, to a French father and a Spanish mother,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.conti-online.com/generator/www/uk/en/contisoccerworld/themes/01_background/10_2014_fifa_world_cup/45_world_cup_stars/1958-fontaine-en.html |title=1958 FIFA World Cup star: Just Fontaine |access-date=31 December 2016}}</ref> Fontaine moved to [[Casablanca]], where he attended the [[Lycée Lyautey]].{{citation needed|date=September 2024}}

Fontaine began his amateur career at [[:fr:Union sportive marocaine de Casablanca|USM Casablanca]], where he played from 1950 to 1953. [[OGC Nice|Nice]] recruited him in 1953, and he went on to score 44 goals in three seasons for the club. In 1956, he moved to [[Stade de Reims]], where he teamed up with [[Raymond Kopa]] from the 1959–60 season. Fontaine scored 121 goals in six seasons at Stade de Reims. In total, Fontaine scored 165 goals in 200 matches in the [[Division 1 (French football)|Division 1]], and won the championship twice, one time in 1958, and the other in 1960. He also took part in the team that got to the [[1958–59 European Cup]] final against Real Madrid, being that season's top scorer with ten goals.<ref name="Guardian">{{cite web |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/mar/01/just-fontaine-france-record-world-cup-goalscorer-dies-aged-89 |title=Just Fontaine, France's record World Cup goalscorer, dies aged 89 |date=1 March 2023 |website=[[The Guardian]] |accessdate=1 March 2023}}</ref>

Wearing the blue shirt of [[France national football team|France]], Fontaine has an even more impressive record. On his debut on 17 December 1953, Fontaine scored a [[Hat-trick|hat trick]] as France defeated [[Luxembourg national football team|Luxembourg]] 8–0. In seven years, he scored 30 goals in 21 matches. However, he will best be remembered for his [[1958 FIFA World Cup]] performance, where he scored 13 goals in just six matches – a feat that included putting four past defending champions [[Germany national football team|West Germany]]. It is also [[FIFA World Cup records#Goalscoring|the highest number of goals ever scored]] by one player at a single World Cup tournament.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/edition=15/overview.html |title=1958 FIFA World Cup Sweden ™ |publisher=FIFA |access-date=28 April 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131016214323/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/edition%3D15/overview.html |archive-date=16 October 2013 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Short |first=Joe |date=13 December 2022 |title=Most goals in a World Cup single tournament: All-time scoring records |url=https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/sport/football/world-cup-most-goals/ |access-date=2023-03-01 |website=Radio Times }}</ref> This tally secured him the [[FIFA World Cup awards|Golden Boot]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://thefootballhistoryboys.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/1958-world-cup-wales-finest-hour.html|title=1958 World Cup: Wales' Finest Hour|website=thefootballhistoryboys.blogspot.co.uk}}</ref> {{As of|2022}}, he is tied with [[Lionel Messi]] as the fourth-top scorer in FIFA World Cup history, with each of the three ahead of him—[[Gerd Müller]] (14 goals), [[Ronaldo (Brazilian footballer)|Ronaldo]] (15 goals) and [[Miroslav Klose]] (16 goals)—having played in at least two tournaments.<ref name="BBC">{{cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/64808839 |title=Just Fontaine: Former France striker and World Cup record holder dies aged 89 |work=BBC Sport |date=1 March 2023 |access-date=1 March 2023}}</ref>

Fontaine played his last match in July 1962, being forced to retire early (28 years and 11 months old) because of a recurring leg injury. He briefly managed the France national team in 1967, but was replaced after only two friendly games, which ended in defeats. As coach of [[Morocco national football team|Morocco]], he led the Atlas Lions to a third place finish in the [[1980 African Cup of Nations]],<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.nst.com.my/sports/football/2023/03/884805/world-cup-finals-record-goal-scorer-just-fontaine-dies |date=1 March 2023 |accessdate=1 March 2023 |title=Record World Cup Scorer dies at 89 |work=[[New Straits Times]]}}</ref> overseeing the emergence of such players as [[Badou Zaki]], [[Mohammed Timoumi]] and [[Aziz Bouderbala]]. Morocco reached the final stage of [[1982 FIFA World Cup qualification (CAF)|1982 World Cup qualification]] but were beaten by [[Cameroon national football team|Cameroon]]. As sporting director of [[Paris Saint-Germain F.C.|Paris Saint-Germain]], he managed to help promote the club to the [[Ligue 1|first division]].<ref name="Guardian"/>

Fontaine was named by [[Pelé]] as one of the [[FIFA 100|125 greatest living footballers]] in March 2004. He was chosen as the best French player of the last 60 years by the [[French Football Federation]] in the [[UEFA Jubilee Awards]] in November 2003.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.uefa.com/uefa/news/Kind%3D256/newsId%3D130150.html |title=Golden Players take centre stage |access-date=11 June 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040312203128/http://www.uefa.com/uefa/news/Kind%3D256/newsId%3D130150.html |archive-date=12 March 2004 }}</ref> With [[Eugène N'Jo Léa]] he founded the [[National Union of Professional Football Players]] in 1961.
