The longstanding record of 13 goals by Just Fontaine in the 1958 World Cup has remained unbroken for nearly seven decades, with the next-closest single-tournament hauls limited to 11, 10, or single digits in every edition since. Modern tournament structures, deeper defensive organization, and the physical demands of reaching that volume make such output exceptionally rare even for elite forwards. Trader consensus at 95.4% on No reflects this historical barrier and the absence of any player entering the expanded 2026 field with realistic pace to challenge it. Scenarios that could still shift sentiment include an unprecedented hot streak by a top striker across multiple knockout rounds, unusually open matches, or extended playing time enabled by favorable scheduling and minimal rotation.
