I don´t know,\n\nI have a hunch it was Ronaldo in 1994 in the United States, even though he didn´t play one single match.  He was 17 at the time.  But Pelé could also be the record holder, because in 1958, in Brazil´s first championhip run, he was a starter and won the world cup in Sweden against the hosts, when he wa also 17.

While Pele is the obvious answer, it is not correct. The most goals scored by a Brazilian in the World Cup is 13, In 1998 by Real Madrid Striker Ronaldo.\n\nRonaldo won the golden shoe in 2002 with eight goals.\nPele totaled 12.

i think he will be close but my money is on michael owen. who ever it is is going to break the record i say of most goals scored in a world cup being 13. i say at least 15

Miroslav Klose scored five goals during the 2002 World Cup.\n\nSo far, he has four in 2006, so he could break Ronaldo's record of 15 goals in the World Cup overall.

Ronaldo scored 11 goals in 1998 and 2002 world cup combined together. 2006 Germany world cup is the opportunity for him to score the highest number of goals scored in the history of the world cup by an individual player if he can score at least another 4 goals. current highest scorer in the world cup is Gerd Muller of Germany (14 goals) followed by Puskas of Humgary (13 goals).

>>> Top scorer in ALL WC ever:\n\nMost goals scored: Gerd Müller (West Germany 1970-1974), 14 \n\nMüller scored 68 goals in 62 games for Germany. His career in the national team started in 1966 and ended on July 7, 1974 with the win of the World Cup at his home stadium in Munich. He scored the winning goal for the 2-1 victory over the Netherlands in the final. His 4 goals in that tournament and his 10 goals at the 1970 World Cup combined make him the most successful World Cup striker to date. Müller also participated in the 1972 European Championship, becoming top scorer with 4 goals and winning the Championship with the German team.\n\n\n>>> Top scorer in ONE WC:\n\nJust Fontaine (born August 18, 1933 in Marrakech, Morocco) was a French football player. He holds the all-time record for goals scored in a single World Cup finals, with 13 in 1958.\n\nWearing the blue shirt of France, Fontaine's statistics are even more impressive. On his debut with the team on December 17, 1953, Fontaine scored a hat trick as France drubbed Luxembourg 8-0. In seven years, he scored 30 goals in 21 matches for the national team. However, Fontaine will best be remembered for his 1958 World Cup performance, where he scored 13 goals in just 6 matches, including putting 4 past the West Germans. This tally secured him the Golden Boot for that tournament, and his total of 13 remains the greatest number of goals scored in a single World Cup tournament.
