No player from the Portuguese history, barring Eusebio in 1966, has claimed the Golden Boot. Ronaldo, this summer, has a really good chance to become the second Portuguese to claim the Golden Boot.

If you remember, James Rodriguez won the Golden Boot in the last World Cup by scoring six goals in five games. Meanwhile, in the 2010 World Cup, it took just 5 goals for Germany's Thomas Muller to claim the award.

Ronaldo so far has scored 4 goals in just two games. And going by the last two World Cups' stats, the Real Madrid star looks favourite to win it this time.

However, Russia's Denis Cheryshev and Spain's Diego Costa are not far behind with three goals each so far.
