The people's rank, live from duel votes

It was his driven shot that Stevie Chalmers turned past Sarti for the goal that beat Inter in Lisbon in 1967, the moment a British club first lifted the European Cup. Beyond that afternoon he collected eight Scottish championships, five Scottish Cups and five League Cups, the passing engine of Jock Stein's Celtic. Career record: 12 caps and 6 goals for Scotland; club career at Celtic, Scottish Football League XI, Middlesbrough.
