frbleus1-4, Exercise 3: Stating a record carefully Model answer (check the details), using Fontaine's 13 goals: Why it needs care: a record depends on its terms. "13 goals" is the most scored by one player in a single World Cup tournament, and it was scored in six matches, but a bare "most goals ever" would be wrong, since other players have scored more in total across several tournaments. The record also depends on the format of the tournament: later World Cups have had more matches, so a player could in principle play more games. Counts of goals can also change if an official record is revised (an own goal, or a disputed goal). A careful sentence: "Just Fontaine scored 13 goals in six matches at the 1958 World Cup, the most by any player in a single tournament, a record that has not been beaten (check the current position)." Care: records change, so give the date you checked, and cite FIFA's own records or a reliable reference.
