VIDEO: All 15 of Miroslav Klose's World Cup goals

Reuters

German striker Miroslav Klose tied Brazilian legend Ronaldo for the all-time lead in tournament scoring on Saturday, netting his 15th World Cup goal in a 2-2 draw against Ghana at the Estadio Castelao in Fortaleza.

The striker, playing in his fourth World Cup, scored in typically instinctive fashion, getting onto the end of a flick inside the penalty area and poking the ball home at the back post.

As you'll see, that type of poacher's finish is par for the course when it comes to the veteran.

Ronaldo had a short message for the German upon seeing his record equaled:

Klose, now 36, is playing in his final World Cup, so he will have at least one more match to surpass the Brazilian for the outright lead when Die Mannschaft play the United States in their final Group G contest.
