German Thomas Mueller, who also scored five, was named by Fifa as the best young player of the tournament.
Mueller, 20, also won the Golden Boot for most goals – his three assists acting as a tie-breaker.
The German thus beat Forlan, Spain’s David Villa and Wesley Sneijder of the Netherlands to the coveted prize.
Bayern Munich ace Mueller saw off Mexico’s Giovani Dos Santos and Ghana’s Andre Ayew for the young player prize.

“This is just incredible for a newcomer to the World Cup,” Mueller told his club’s official website.
“It’s an honour of course, but at the end of the day, I’d rather have had the World Cup itself.”
Of his young player award, the 20-year-old added: “It’s a huge honour to be part of a group including the likes of Pele, Franz Beckenbauer, Michael Owen and the most recent winner, Lukas Podolski.
“For me personally, it’s terrific confirmation of the work I’ve put in over the last year. I’m delighted my great run has continued here, and I’ve really enjoyed it too. The honour will be with me for all time, and it’s a wonderful memento too.”
