Lionel Messi vs Ally McCoist: Barcelona star on the verge of breaking long-standing Golden Shoe record held by Rangers legend
Lionel Messi will almost certainly win his third consecutive European Golden Shoe this weekend – breaking a long-standing record held by Rangers legend Ally McCoist.First introduced for the 1967/68 season by French football magazine L’Equipe, it has been handed out by the European Sports Media (ESM) since the 1996/97 season, where a points-based system has been in place.The Golden Shoe is given to the top goalscorer across European leagues at the end of each season.Lionel Messi is Barcelona’s all-time top scorer with an incredible 602 goalsGetty3

Messi looks set to claim the prize yet again, unless Kylian Mbappe can score five when Paris Saint-Germain play Stade Reims tomorrow.The Argentine genius scored twice during Barcelona’s final game of the season, a 2-2 draw with Eibar, to reach 36 goals in 34 games.He will become the first player in history to win the Golden Shoe in three consecutive years after netting 37 goals during the 2016/17 season and 34 last campaign.

What on Earth is the Golden Shoe?

For those of you who dont know how the Golden Shoe standings are calculated, UEFAs definition is as follows:The rankings are based on league goals scored multiplied by a figure denoting the difficulty ranking of each league, which is calculated using the UEFA coefficient list.Only the top five leagues [Premier League, Serie A, LaLiga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1] have a x2 multiplier.Middle ranked leagues have a x1.5 multiplier, while the lower-ranked leagues are x1. However, he is not the only man to have won it twice in a row, as the talkSPORT co-presenter will tell you.McCoist’s Rangers heroics during the 1991/92 and 1992/93 seasons means he shares the record with Messi –Cristiano Ronaldo and Thierry Henry did it, but had to share it with someone else.McCoist scored 34 goals in both campaigns as the Gers stormed their way to the Scottish league title.McCoist was the most prolific striker in Europe for two seasons in a rowGETTY3

Sadly for Ally, there was no award handed out between 1991 and 1996 – when he was scoring for fun – owing to a dispute with the Cyprus Football Association over who the rightful winner was.Messi has won five of them, so if there is one going spare, Lionel…

Golden Shoe as it stands
