Is Golden Boot shared? What happened last time three players tied for top scorer

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane all won the race to the Premier League Golden Boot this season.

So what happens next?

Well unlike the World Cup where assists are taken into account when two or more players have netted the joint most amount of goals, the Premier League is slightly different.

The English top flight splits the award between the winners, with each of the players being presented with their own personal Golden Boots.

Chris Sutton, Michael Owen and Dion Dublin were all Premier League top goal scorers back in the 1997/98 campaign.

This was then repeated a year later when Jimmy Floyd-Hasselbaink, Michael Owen and Dwight Yorke each netted the joint most in the top flight.

Mohamed Salah went into the final day of the season leading the rest of the chasing pack by two goals at the top of the scoring charts.

But Arsenal striker Aubameyang netted a brace in the Gunners' 3-1 win over Burnley to take his tally from 20 to 22 for the season.

Mane had also netted 20 times going into the final day of the Premier League season but also bagged twice in Liverpool's 2-0 win over Wolves to draw the trio level.

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero just missed out on winning the Golden Boot with 21 goals for the season.

The Argentine bagged the Citizens' first in their 4-1 win over Brighton but was unable to notch a second. He did win the title on the same day though, so swings and roundabouts.
