JAKARTA - The goalkeeper of the Dutch national team, Andries Noppert, stole public attention ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. With a height of 203 cm, he became the highest player to appear in Qatar.
Noppert's record is one point ahead of the Serbian national team goalkeeper, Vanja Milinkovic-Savic, which is 202 cm.
Appearing at the World Cup is Noopert's first opportunity. He first joined the team nicknamed The flying Dutchman in September 2022.
Although relatively new, Louis van Gaal gave him the confidence to enter the 2022 World Cup squad.
Noppert is the goalkeeper who defended the Heerenveen club. There, he was also the highest player.

The record of the shortest player to appear in Qatar is being held by the Morocco national team player, Ilias Chair with a height of 158 cm. Chair is the Queens Park Rangers player who played in the second caste of the Premier League, Championship.

Moukoko is a player born in Yaounde, Cameroon, November 20, 2004. Moukoko was chosen by Germany coach Hansi Flick, following Timo Werner's injury.
As a player with the youngest age record, Moukoko doesn't even have a presidential candidate with the German national team. That means the appearance at the weekend will be his first experience.
However, Moukoko's ability is also unquestionable. Together with Borussia Dortmund, he performed well with six goals from 14 appearances in the Bundesliga.
In the order of the oldest player of the 2022 World Cup, the winner is still being held by the Mexican national team goalkeeper, Alfredo Talavera. The club goalkeeper will be 40 years old and 63 days old when the 2022 World Cup opens.
