The World Cup 2026 stats<\/strong> that defined the tournament, in one place — now that Spain are champions. The Golden Boot race, the leading assist-makers, the meanest defences and the biggest wins. For the bigger picture, see our World Cup 2026<\/a> hub.<\/p>\n\n

World Cup 2026 top scorers<\/h2>\n

France’s Kylian Mbappe<\/a> finished as the tournament’s top scorer and took the Golden Boot with 10 goals, ahead of Lionel Messi on eight and England’s Jude Bellingham<\/a> and Norway’s Erling Haaland<\/a> on seven.<\/p>\n

Spain’s Mikel Oyarzabal<\/a> was the leading scorer among the finalists on five, while final matchwinner Ferran Torres and a cluster of others finished on four.<\/p>\n\n

World Cup 2026 assist leaders<\/h2>\n

France’s Michael Olise<\/a> topped the creators’ charts with seven assists, well clear of a group on four that included Lionel Messi, Brazil’s Bruno Guimaraes<\/a> and Morocco’s Brahim Diaz.<\/p>\n

The meanest defences<\/h2>\n

Spain<\/strong> boasted the meanest defence at the World Cup 2026, and it carried them to the title: they conceded just one goal in the entire tournament — Charles De Ketelaere’s equaliser for Belgium in the quarter-finals — and kept a clean sheet in the final. Co-hosts Mexico<\/strong> also kept clean sheet after clean sheet until England knocked them out in a 3-2 Round-of-16 thriller.<\/p>\n\n

The biggest wins<\/h2>\n

Germany’s 7-1 demolition of Curacao is the heaviest win of the tournament, closely followed by Canada’s 6-0 rout of Qatar. Portugal (5-0 v Uzbekistan), Senegal (5-0 v Iraq) and the Netherlands (5-1 v Sweden) also ran up big scores.<\/p>\n\n

The fastest goals<\/h2>\n

Three players struck inside the opening two minutes: Germany’s Leroy Sane, Paraguay’s Miguel Galarza and Morocco’s Ismael Saibari all found the net at the two-minute mark.<\/p>\n\n

The numbers behind the champions<\/h2>\n

Spain are world champions, and the World Cup 2026 stats tell you how: the tournament’s meanest defence, conceding once in eight games, allied to enough quality in the final third to see off every challenge. Kylian Mbappe took the Golden Boot and Michael Olise the assist crown, but it was Spain who lifted the trophy.<\/p>\n
