IFFHS World’s Best Man Goal Scorer 2021 at June 30:
Lewandowski chased by Messi
Three goals scored at Euro 2020 allowed Robert Lewandowski to hold the leadership in the ranking. With 34 goals at his tally, the Pole has 2 goal advantage to the runner-up Lionel Messi.
However, the sutuation can change in Jule since Lewandowski will have no official games over this month while Messi can play up to 3 games in Copa America for Argentina.
Gonzalo Bergessio from Nacional (Uruguay) was the most successful goal-scorer in June: 8 goals (including 2 hat-tricks). He has moved to 8th position in the ranking.
Mohamed Amoura from Setif (Algeria) has scored 7 goals over the past month.
Six goals scored by Cristiano Ronaldo for Portugal in June (five from them in Euro) lifted him to 5th position with 27 goals total.
All goals at top senior level are counted (top national divisions, national cups, official international club tournaments, official games between national teams).
Brazilian state championships Paulista and Carioca have status equal to national leagues (according to IFFHS decision).
