One Of The Worst Players On FIFA History Is Doing Bits In 2017

He's come along way

Earlier in the year, Danish minnows FC Midtjylland recorded a shock victory over Premier League giants Manchester United in the Europa League.

Established in 1999, the year of Sir Alex Ferguson's treble winning season. It was an incredible moment for everyone at the club - including winger Pione Sisto.

Sisto was hugely impressive during that 2-1 win in Denmark, scoring the opening goal with a superb individual effort just before the half time break.

The 21-year-old caught the eye yet again just a week later, scoring Midtjylland's only goal in a humbling 5-1 defeat at Old Trafford.

From an early age, Sisto showed promise but his emergence in the game was scuppered in 2014 when FIFA decided to give him one of the worst cards in the game - a bronze 45-rated RM card.

It was an injustice to his frightening talent.

At the age of 18, EA decided to give him 41 shooting, 42 passing and 47 dribbling, despite his undeniable potential. We're not sure who scouted the youngster back in 2014, but they were wrong.

Despite this setback, Sisto continued to star at Midtjylland. Just five months after that performance at Old Trafford, the winger was snapped up by La Liga side Celta Vigo in a deal worth a reported £5 million.

Sisto made his debut in late August and has shown huge signs of becoming a key player for Celta in the near future, scoring against Barcelona in early October.

EA Sports have finally seen the light when it comes to Sisto's ability, giving him a respectable 74-rated Silver card in FIFA 17.

The biggest upgrade ever - Sisto's +29 rating from 2014 to 2017 is a pretty impressive.

Justice has been done.

Here's the lowest rated FIFA players of all time.
