2. Rivaldo, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho (RRR, R3) – Brazil
Brazil have always been known to produce some fine forwards. In fact, the trio of Ronaldinho, Ronaldo and Rivaldo is one of the best attacking football trios of not only Brazil but also one of the best attacking football trios of the world.
The 2002 World Cup will always be remembered for Brazil’s dominance; when this deadliest trio led Brazil to world cup title. Ronaldinho was young and displayed his vast potential when he scored a 40-yard free-kick against England. Rivaldo and Ronaldo were at their peak and absolutely devastated their opponents with horrible display of lethality.
Brazil won the world cup title and Ronaldo and Rivaldo were the top two scorers in the tournament with 9 and 5 goals respectively. Such was the influence of the trio that at least one of them scored in every single game of the World Cup.
3. Bale, Benzema and Cristiano (BBC)-Real Madrid
Real Madrid also have a lethal attacking trio in the form of Bale, Benzema and Cristiano (BBC). The age of this trio playing together might not be as great as the rest, but the number of trophies they have won and the dominance they have shown gives them a spot here. Playing together for just over two seasons, they have already won 4 trophies. Real Madrid recorded the highest number of consecutive wins in Europe with 22 straight wins – and the ‘BBC’ smashed almost every defense that came in their path. While Benzema might be the central forward, his role as a withdrawn support forward is the main reason for both Cristiano and Bale to function at their full potential.
4. Jairzinho, Tostao and Pele – Brazil

Tostao remains Cruzeiro’s all-time top scorer with 249 goals, Jairzinho famously scored in each and every match of the World Cup 1970, while Pele is possibly the greatest player of all time.
