Trying to pick which competitor will be the leading scorer for the competition is 1 of the most fascinating soccer betting side bets to make on the World Cup gambling action. There are obviously numerous things you are able to bet on in the World Cup probabilities aside from the competitions themselves including who will win the award for the leading competitor of the competition, which competitor will score 1st in the World Cup action, which squad will score the most goals, etc.

But the Golden Boot Award, granted to the leading scorer for the World Cup gambling event in any given year is 1 of the most fascinating contests in the World Cup probabilities competition at the online sportsbooks. This year the fight for that award has been somewhat anti-climactic as there has not genuinely been any competitor that can separate himself from the field, but the 2010 World Cup gambling action at the online sportsbooks is still young and there’s a lot of opportunities that lie ahead.

Getting into the World Cup gambling competition, the soccer gambling probabilities, all preferred huge superstars like Wayne Rooney, Lionel Messi and Christiano Ronaldo, as the players most probable to score the most goals in this year’s World Cup probabilities event.

But through 2 competitions, of that illustrious list above, only Ronaldo has found the net. Messi has played a amazing competition to date and been a bit improbable as he’s had some impressive shots just miss but he has not scored one time. Rooney has been a non-factor and if his squad does not score a win vs Slovenia his World Cup gambling adventure will be over.

Messi’s Argentine teammate, Gonzalo Higuain, is the lead scorer right now. Higuain leads all goal makers in the World Cup probabilities right now after he netted a hat-trick vs South Korea. Portugal’s Tiago had 2 goals in the squad’s 7-0 rout of North Korea and is tied with Ghana’s Asamoah Gyan and Brazilian team members Elano and Luis Fabiano with 2 goals apiece for 2nd most in the competition.

It’s hard to say who will win the Golden Boot Award when the dust finally settles and the World Cup gambling ends. But more than likely it’ll be from a squad that goes deep into the competition (like Argentina or Brazil) and that performs on an attacking side (like Argentina or Holland).

The 1930 World Cup was when the Golden Boot Award was 1st introduced. Since the 1994 World Cup, though, there’s also a silver and bronze version of the award given to the 2nd and 3rd greatest goalscorers of the Cup.

There’s also numerous other awards given during the World Cup. For example, there’s the Golden Ball. This award is presented to the greatest competitor at the World Cup Finals, as determined by a committee and voters in the media. The Yashin Award has been given since 1994 and is given to the greatest goalie. The FIFA Fair Play Trophy, granted since 1970, is given to the squad with the greatest track record of fair play. And the Most Entertaining Team Award is given to the squad that has entertained the public the most. It was first granted in 1994.
