European Golden Shoe
The
European Golden Shoe is awarded to the top goal scorer in Europe. Since the
points system was established in 1996, Ronaldo and Messi are two of only three
players, along with Mário Jardel, to
score 80 or more points, while Messi is
the only player to score 100 points. The Golden Shoe is awarded based on a
weighted points system that allows players in tougher leagues to win even if
they score fewer goals than a player in a weaker league. Goals scored in the
top five leagues according to the UEFA coefficients rankings are multiplied by
a factor of two, and goals scored in the leagues ranked six to 21 are
multiplied by 1.5. Ronaldo and Messi are the only players to win the award
three times.
By
virtue of being the top scorer in Europe, Ronaldo and Messi also received the
Premier League Golden Boot and the Pichichi Trophy in the respective seasons.
