Receiving a perfect score of ten marks from the French daily sports newspaper L'Equipe is considered one of the toughest honors a footballer can achieve, signifying exceptional performance under strict evaluation.
L'Equipe has a reputation for rigorous player ratings, awarding perfect scores very rarely. As of August 2024, only 15 players have ever received this prestigious rating.
The first-ever perfect score was awarded to Franck Sauzee in 1988 for his stellar performance in the Under-21 European Championship final against Greece, where he scored twice.
Bruno Martini, the first goalkeeper to receive a 10/10 from L'Equipe, achieved this alongside Sauzee during the same match, showcasing an exemplary performance that led France to victory.
