    BBC quiz asking you to name all the WC golden boot winners since 1966!

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/43871219

    Be warned, an incorrect spelling will be an incorrect answer. I would have gotten all 14, but I kept spelling some of the names wrong eating up too much time, I eventually used google to get the correct spellings (note I wasn't using google to check who the actual top scorers were though!). I ended up getting 11/14, but if I had used google earlier as a spellchecker I reckon I would have gotten all 14.

    1974 World Cup is likely the toughest one to get, so anyone who gets that (without cheating! :D) very well played to you! 'Nicknames' are not accepted and you need to full surname *cough*2014*cough* (which I didn't realise and lost more time with).

    94 might also be quite tricky since the footballer was not exactly a household name.

    10/14, but I can picture one of the 94 winners, an unlikely team too. Got a big transfer out of it from memory and never matched it.

    74, 94, 14 missing. I'm guessing 74 is Dutch..
    I spent too long trying various spellings of Rensenbrink

    Knew the 1974 one, but had to think about the 2014 one!!

    9/14. Didn't even get the 2014 one.

    Mind just went blank and kept thinking of answers I'd already given.
