Lewandowski leads the race for the award at the moment
As said earlier, Bayern Munich's sharpshooter, Robert Lewandowski has dominated the highlights with his unbelievable finishing skills this season. As a matter of fact, if anyone could beat Lionel Messi to the European Golden Shoe this term, this man is a prime candidate. Lewandowski began the campaign in explosive form, bagging a brace in his first game against Hertha Berlin. He followed it up with a hat-trick in the 3-0 demolition of Schalke 04 before adding another effort as Bayern crushed Mainz 05 in their third fixture.
He's gone forward to add many more goals to his name. The Polish striker currently leads the race for the European Golden Shoe with 19 efforts in 17 Bundesliga appearances. He remains a huge threat to Lionel Messi in the race for the accolade and surely has a decent chance to get the job done this term.
