It's an incredible moment to score at a World Cup. To score in multiple World Cups, though? 

Only 14 players have reached double figures in strikes at the tournament, with only eight players on nine. And the list isn't just a who's who of the best players of all time.

OK, so some of the players on this are all-time GOATs (or least close). But others are players who don't really get too much of a mention outside of World Cup season. 

It's a difficult quiz, this one. But you'll know a lot of them, even if you weren't there at the time.
