Sándor Kocsis
Kocsis scored 11 World Cup goals in 5 matches for Hungary at the 1954 tournament, the best rate among players on 11 goals. Wikipedia lists Kocsis with 11 goals in 5 matches, a rate of 2.20, all at the 1954 World Cup, which it marks as a top-scorer year. No title year is marked. Opta Analyst says it was his only World Cup and that he scored in every match before the final. Hungary lost that final 3-2 to West Germany after leading 2-0 inside 8 minutes, a match Analyst refers to as the Miracle of Bern.
