As Hans says

If there is a tie FIFA will golden boot to the player with most assists or some other tiebreaker

Betfair will settle top goalscorer as dead heat

Was fun in Euro 2012 ;  Torres was one of 4 players on 3 goals , but he had most assists , so the commentators in the final were saying he had the golden boot wrapped up (unless Balotelli scored one at the other end) . People were backing him at anything above Evens for top scorer on here , thinking it was same as golden boot  , but unless he scored in injury time it was just a 4 way DH .

golden boot rules are if equal number of goals scored the tie breaks will be:number of assists (decided by FIFA technical study group)

if stll tied then:total minutes played and the player with the fewer minutes will be 1st and be declared the golden boot winner
