The best teenagers in World Cup history features Jude Bellingham at 10), but that's not a placeholder really...
Not to be confused with Ghana captain John Mensah, his more formal counterpart impressed for one of the World Cup’s most iconic teams. Jonathan Mensah watched The Black Stars’ opening victory over Serbia in 2010 from the bench, then came in to complete the group with a draw against Australia and defeat to Germany.
The senior Mensah actually let his subordinate down. When Ghana’s captain was nutmegged by Clint Dempsey in the round of 16, the teenage Mensah had to lunge in and try to avert the danger. He gave away a penalty in the process, as well as receiving the booking which put him out of the quarter-final against Uruguay through suspension.“I still think we had the potential to win that year,” Sunday Oliseh claimed in summer 2021.
Owen was 22 years and 183 days old when he netted against Denmark at the 2002 World Cup, but perhaps his career highlight – aside from flying a helicopter in Dubai – was at France ’98. His strike against Romania set a marker that Bellingham and Bukayo Saka did well to get within reach of recently, considering Dele Alli and Jimmy Greaves were next on the list at 22.
Bergomi’s role on the periphery was confirmed by his place on the substitutes’ bench for Italy’s first four games of that summer. An injury to Fulvio Collovati was the turning point; a teenage Bergomi replaced him in the first half of a win over Brazil, before retaining his place at centre-half in the semi-final against Poland.
