Maldini's and other triple dynasties in national teams 

Daniel Maldini has debutted for Italy on 14 October in the Nations League game vs Israel (4-1). 
With Cesare, Paolo and now also Daniel, Maldini is the first ever family with 3 generations of players (grandfather, father and son) in the history of Italian national team. 
22 years 118 days have passed since Paolo Maldini's last match with Italy; 61 years 1 day since Cesare Maldini's last.
Here we list, in chronological order, 13 dynasties in the history of world football which represented men’s national teams in 3 different generations.
The members of a dynasty are marked by index of generation. (1) is given to oldest member (founder of dynasty). The ones with (2) are sons for him, (3) grandsons, (4) great-grandsons.
The letters next to a digit (a,b,c) are used in case of multiple members in a generation (the brothers are marked age-wise alphabetically) or in case to indicate kinship (whose son is a member). 
Only direct relationships inside a family are admitted.
The name of a dinasty is conditional (in cases of lacking or not using normal surnames).
