Top Contenders for the LaLiga Golden Boot: October 2018

#5 Maximiliano Gomez (Uruguay, Celta de Vigo)

Barcelona v Celta de Vigo - La Liga

Goals Scored: 4

The Uruguayan had a decent run in the league last season, scoring 18 goals in 36 games and registering 5 assists. Gomez has also started the new season well, scoring 4 goals from 7 appearances in the la liga, and adding 3 assists.

Gomez struck his first goal of the season in his second game in the league, against Levante. He then scored against Atletico Madrid, in the next game. The following match against Girona turned out to be a disappointment, because Celta de Vigo lost the game and Gomez could not find the back of the net. In his next game, the Uruguayan scored an important goal in the draw at home against Real Valladolid. Against Valencia, in the following game, he drew a blank once more. Last weekend, Gomez gave Celta Vigo the lead against Getafe, but the match ended in a draw.

Gomez averages 2.3 shots per game this season and is in the 5th position among the contenders for the La Liga Golden Boot, at the start of October.
