Králové kanonýrů se utkají o rekord. A Messi? V něčem je horší než Nejedlý

Lionel Messi opened this World Cup with a hat-trick and has now scored sixteen goals across all World Cup tournaments, tying Miroslav Klose's record. Kylian Mbappé trails Messi by only two goals despite playing significantly fewer matches. In terms of goal-scoring average, Messi has 0.62 goals per match while Klose has 0.67 goals per match. Historically, the most productive strikers came from the 1950s - Just Fontaine scored thirteen goals in 1958 with an average of 2.17 per match, and Sándor Kocsis scored eleven goals in five matches in 1954 with an average of 2.20. Other notable strikers include Czechoslovak footballer Oldřich Nejedlý with an average of 1.17 goals per match. Mbappé currently appears as the strongest candidate to break records with an average of 0.93 goals per match from fifteen matches.
