Harry Kane is searching for the World Cup Golden Boot and is aiming to become England’s first winner since Gary Lineker in 1986.

He started well by scoring five goals in his first two games of Russia 2018 and, ahead of the semi-final, has six strikes to his name.
Lineker is England’s top scoring player at the World Cup and won the Golden Boot with six goals in 1986, while he has ten overall.
And Kane would love to be collecting another individual award, this time in England colours, having won two Premier League Golden Boots already.

Just Fontaine is fourth on the list, but only a magical and sensational player can score a record 13 goals in a single edition of the World Cup tournament. In 1958, Fontaine flaunted his goal scoring skill in Sweden in the six matches he played, one of which was against West Germany when he put four goals past them.

The most goals scord by an individual player in a World Cup finals tournament is 13 by Just Fontaine (France) in 1958 in Sweden. Fontaine did not hold down a regular French international spot before the tournament and only got his chance due to injury to his Rheims teammate Rene Bliard (France). Hockey players who hold the record for most goals at a single World Cup tournament. Most goals in a single Women’s World Cup match. The 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup France group. In no particular order, we start with arguably the greatest World Cup goal ever scored, Carlos Alberto’s jackhammer of a strike in 1970. Carlos Alberto – Brazil vs Italy 1970 Widely thought to be the greatest team goal ever, the build up was one of the most sublime goals scored by one of the greatest teams ever.

“I said before obviously as a striker that’s always an aim but I’ve said as well the most important thing is that we’re winning games,” he said following his hat-trick against Panama.

“As long as the goals are helping the team win, that’s the most important thing and that’s a great performance.”

However, Kane has some way to go to reach the tournament’s greatest ever haul. That title belongs to Just Fontaine.

It was just the 13 goals in one World Cup for Moroccan-born Fontaine, who rather unjustly didn’t win the player of the tournament award in 1958.

In Sweden he scored in every game he played, including four against defending champions West Germany in a 6-3 win in Gothenburg to decide who came third.

Overall, France scored 23 goals in six games, yet still lost two of them.

Their defence must have been absolute merde.

Miroslav Klose, meanwhile, has scored more goals overall at the World Cup with 16 across four tournaments.
