The top goal scorer at the 2002 World Cup was Brazil’s Ronaldo, who comes in at second on the all-time leading scorers at the World Cup. He scored a hat-trick during Germany’s 8-0 victory against Saudi Arabia in the group stage and went on to score two more goals during the tournament. His first World Cup goals came 12 years earlier at the World Cup in South Korea and Japan in 2002. The striker scored his sixteenth and record-breaking goal in Germany's 7-1 semi-final demolition of Brazil during the 2014 World Cup. Germany’s Miroslav Klose holds the record for the most goals ever scored at the World Cup. The World Cup in France was also the first tournament which included 64 teams in the main event, a vast increase on the 18 teams that took part in the very first World Cup in Uruguay in 1930. The 171 goals scored during the 2014 World Cup in Brazil equals the record for the most goals in a single World Cup along with France 1998. The final between West Germany and Hungary clocked in at a below-average 3-2. This number can be attributed to some unusually high-scoring games, which included Austria 7 Switzerland 5 and Hungary 9 South Korea 0. The highest ever goals to game ratio was during the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland, where an average of 5.38 goals were scored in each of the 26 games.
