বাংলাLionel Messi is just one match away from winning the Golden Boot at the FIFA World Cup. The Argentina captain currently leads the scoring chart with eight goals and remains the favourite to claim the prestigious individual award.
The Golden Boot is awarded to the tournament’s highest scorer. If players finish level on goals, assists and minutes played are used as tie-breakers. Messi currently has four assists, while France’s Kylian Mbappe has three.
Despite its name, the Golden Boot is not made entirely of gold. It is produced from a mix of metals with a gold-coloured finish. FIFA does not award separate prize money for the trophy, although winning it often increases a player’s market value and commercial opportunities.
The record for the most goals in a single World Cup belongs to France’s Just Fontaine, who scored 13 goals in 1958. Argentina’s Guillermo Stabile became the first-ever Golden Boot winner after scoring eight goals in the inaugural 1930 World Cup.
Attention now turns to the final matches of the tournament. If Mbappe fails to overtake Messi in the third-place playoff, the World Cup final could decide who lifts the Golden Boot.
