If there was a player capable of getting it, that was Leo Messi. The Argentine is since last night the only player in history who has won six times the Golden Boot, a prize that credits him as top scorer in the European leagues. The 36 goals he scored in LaLiga Santander in 34 games with Barcelona were enough to sweep the other scorers of the Old Continent.
Kylian Mbappé tried until the last day and, although he was the only one able to keep up the pace of Rosario's talent, the striker of Paris Saint-Germain could not snatch the award from Leo. At this rate, we will have to start evaluating the possibility of changing the name of the award to that of Lionel Messi. The Barça captain has won the trophy three consecutive years and takes advantage in the prize list. Far is the pulse I had with Cristiano Ronaldo. Leo is already six and Madeira is still four. Taking into account the difficulty of scoring goals in a championship like the Italian, it will be difficult for Cristiano to hunt down Messi before hanging up his boots.
