The greatest strike partnerships of all time - ranked
By 90min Staff
10. Marco van Basten & Ruud Gullit (Milan)
After almost a decade of decline with no trophies won, a change of ownership shook things up at AC Milan in 1986. A year later, Gullit and Van Basten arrived at the club to freshen things up dramatically.
While Gullit was an instant hit, Van Basten battled with injuries. But it didn't stop him from scoring the title-winning goal against Napoli in his debut season. The two blossomed together and were world beaters as they retained the European Cup and continued to dominate in Serie A through the 90s.
9. Raul & Fernando Morientes (Real Madrid)
Before the Galacticos era began, it was two Spaniards leading the line for Real Madrid. Raul and Fernando Morientes were inseparable on and off the pitch, which reflected in their play.
Good friends scoring great goals, they won La Liga twice and the Champions League three times as a duo, before Morientes was phased out for bigger names.
