Before the premiere of the 2026 World Cup, Miroslav Klose predicted that his goal record at the World Cup would be broken and stressed he would want Lionel Messi to do it.
The German wore stopped at 16 goals in the 2014 World Cup and since then no one had reached him. But he expected Lionel Messi to make it from the premiere of the 2026 World Cup!
Argentinian scored three goals in the Argentine game with Algeria and reached 16 in a World Cup. So he caught Cloze at the top and he's a top scorer of all time in a World Cup.
Of course he has other games ahead of him to score and be alone. The only now threatening him is Killian Ebape who after two goals against Senegal has 14.
