1994 FIFA World Cup Golden Boot Final List
The FIFA World Cup Golden Boot is the award given to the top goal scorer of the World Cup tournament. Here is the list of the top goal scorers for the 1994 World Cup held in the USA.
There were two joint winners of the award. For the 1994 World Cup, a tie breaker rule was introduced, but it was still not able to split the winners. Both Stoichkov and Salenko scored six goals and had one assist each. In 2006 the tie breaker rule was expanded to further split winners, if required, by giving it to the player with the least number of playing minutes.
