Real Madrid, the storied club of Spain's La Liga, has become the club that has produced the most goals in World Cup history.
Football statistics provider Besoccer said on the 12th that "at the North and Central American World Cup, which still has the semifinals remaining, Real Madrid players have scored 19 goals, breaking the record for most goals in this category."
With the North and Central American World Cup still underway, forward Kylian Mbappe (8 goals) and Jude Bellingham (England, 6 goals) have combined for 14 goals.
In addition, Vinicius Junior (Brazil) has scored 4 goals and Arda Guler (Turkey) has scored 1 goal.
In the cases of Mbappe and Bellingham, with France and England advancing to the semifinals and set to play at least two more matches each, the goal record of Real Madrid players is likely to increase further.
The previous record for most goals by a single club at a World Cup was 18 goals by Hungary's Budapest Honved in 1954.
At the 2014 Brazil tournament, Bayern Munich (Germany) tied the mark with 18 goals.
At that time, Germany national team's Thomas Muller scored 5 goals and Mario Gotze scored 2 goals.
In addition, Arjen Robben (Netherlands) and Xherdan Shaqiri (Switzerland) each added 3 goals, Mario Mandzukic (Croatia) added 2 goals, and Julian Green (United States) added 1 goal.
At the 2022 Qatar tournament, Paris Saint-Germain (France) again tied the mark with 18 goals.
