Not Much Fits

Seeing as everyone is talking about Peter Crouch being 6ft 7in, I decided to have a look and see if there were any other players taller than him.

So far I have found two:

Nikola Zigic who plays for Sebia is 202cm, or 6ft 8in. The Red Star Belgrade striker is Serbia’s secret weapon – he’s scored 55 goals in 77 matches during the last two seasons, and has been voted Serbia’s player of the year twice in the last three years. And he set up two of Mateja Kezman’s goals in qualifying.

Jan Koller who plays for Czech Republic is also 202cm, or 6ft 8. Koller’s fitness is crucial to the Czech Republic’s chances as he has been recovering from a cruciate knee ligament injury that he sustained last year. He is deadly in the air but is also blessed with a good touch as well. Koller’s international goalscoring record of better than a goal every other has helped him become the Czech’s all-time leading scorer.
