The World Cup's craziest haircuts

 Some haircuts are crazy, some are bad

Some footballers like to push fashion's boundaries. Unfortunately it doesn't always work, as Colombia's Carlos Valderrama and his infamous hair style proved.

Click or swipe to see some of the World Cup's craziest haircuts.

Abel Xavier (Portugal, 2002)

The pioneer of the bleached hair horror show, Portugal defender Xavier made it worse with his range of strange beards.

Alexi Lalas (USA, 1994)

Another hair and beard combination that should never have been seen on a football pitch.

Sir Bobby Charlton (England, 1970)

He remains England's leading international goal scorer but here he shows how the comb-over look can go badly wrong.

Carles Puyol (Spain, 2010)

It doesn't matter how good you are, or even if you are a World Cup winner, bad hair is simply bad hair as Spain's Carles Puyol shows here.

Christian Ziege (Germany, 2002)

In 2002 German defender Ziege sported the go-faster stripe, half of which he decided to die. A bit like Robert de Niro's "Taxi Driver" character, with an added silly bit.

 Clint Mathis (USA, 2002)

Is American midfielder Mathis pointing to where the rest of his hair has gone?

David Seaman (England, 2002)

Did goalkeeper Seaman's ponytail distract him from trying to save Ronaldinho's free-kick when Brazil knocked out England in 2002?

Djibril Cissé (France, 2002)

Whenever you think of crazy football haircuts French star Cissé should never be far from your mind and this is definitely one of his craziest hair choices.

Hassan Yebda (Algeria, 2010)

This haircut deserved a yellow card.

René Higuita (Colombia, 1990)

Colombia's eccentric goalkeeper had an equally eccentric haircut.

Rigobert Song (Cameroon, 2006)

Dyed dreadlocks never produce a good look.

Romania, 1998

This is a special tribute to the whole Romania team of 1998 who brought a new aspect to team bonding when they all bleached their hair blond.

Ronaldo (Brazil, 2002)

He won the Golden Boot and the World Cup in 2002 but Ronaldo won no awards for this haircut.

Taribo West (Nigeria, 1998)

Green extensions with little bits on top and a pony tail, it might be patriotic from the Nigeria star but it is also ridiculous.
