Thomas Muller staked his claim for the Golden Shoe award as the World Cup's top scorer as Germany secured the third-place consolation prize with a 3-2 win over Uruguay.

The 20-year-old forward currently leads the race after his fifth goal of the tournament - the same as Diego Forlan, David Villa and Wesley Sneijder but with more 'assists'.

Following Muller's opener, Edinson Cavani equalised for Uruguay and Forlan volleyed the South Americans in front before a goalkeeping error allowed Marcell Jansen to equalise. A thrilling game - the most open contest of the World Cup - was finally decided when Sami Khedira headed home to give Germany their second third-place finish in consecutive tournaments.
