Top Contenders for the LaLiga Golden Boot - November 2018

#2 Iago Aspas (Spain, Celta de Vigo)

Celta de Vigo v Barcelona - La Liga

Goals Scored:8

The Spanish Center Forward powered through the ranks after a strong finish to the month of October, which sees him climb from 4th at the start of October to 2nd at the start of November. Only an inferior goals to game ratio has kept him away from the number one spot.

Aspas failed to score in the 2-1 away loss at the hands of Seville, where he played 70 minutes. He failed to score again in the next game, a disappointing 0-1 defeat at the hands of Alaves at home. He had started both games in the right wing and it was just not happening for him.

For the home game against Eibar, Aspas started in the Center Forward role. He immediately responded to his manager's faith in him, scoring as early as the 5th minute. He scored again in the 36th minute and then completed his hat-trick in the 82nd minute, as Celta de Vigo won the game 4-0.

Aspas now has 8 goals from 10 games and will be looking to build on his performance in the coming matches. At the start of November, the Spaniard is second among the contenders for the La Liga Golden Boot.
