Research reveals that, in a given period of the 20th century, top footballers (defined as those who had played for their country's team) lived, on average, almost 5 years longer than middle ranking footballers. We can conclude therefore that for the top footballers, success had a beneficial effect on their lifespan.

Which one of the following is the best statement of the flaw in the argument above?

The study was limited to footballers in a given period of time.
It assumes that the longer lifespan could not be explained by other factors
Playing football regularly may have health benefits which contribute to longer lifespan
Living longer is not necessarily a good thing.
Life expectancy increased generally in the 20th century.
