Sandor Kocsis)
Sándor Kocsis (born September 21, 1929 in Budapest; died July 22, 1979) was a Hungarian football striker, who ranks fourth all-time with 75 international goals (in only 68 caps). Amazingly, he is not the top scorer for Hungary, as Ferenc Puskás scored 84. He is nicknamed "Golden Head" for his aerial prowess.
Kocsis' international career spanned from 1948 to 1956. He led the 1954 World Cup in scoring with 11 goals as Hungary finished second. That number has only been topped once, by Just Fontaine scored 13 in 1958; it seems unlikely that it will be surpassed again in the foreseeable future.
