Salah would have become the sixth player to win the golden boot in successive seasons and the second from Liverpool after Michael Owen completed the feat in the 97/98 and 98/99 seasons if he could ward off his challengers. Injury ensured two-time winner Harry Kane wasn’t in the shake up for the award on the final day. The Spurs and England star managed 17 Premier goals before an ankle injury ended his season. Chasing Salah for final day glory on 20 goals each were Manchester City’s Sergio Agüero, Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and his Liverpool teammate Sadio Mane. Gabon’s Aubameyang would come out on top by virtue of playing fewer matches than the Liverpool pair of Salah and Mane who tied with him on 22 goals. Mane and Aubameyang both bagged braces on the final day. Sergio Aguero scored once while Salah failed to net. Three of the top four players are African internationals who are expected to turn out for their countries at the African Cup of Nations in Egypt during the off-season. The best of the home grown English talent is Leicester City’s Jamie Vardy who has tallied 18 goals for the Foxes this campaign. Right behind Vardy though is the red-hot Raheem Sterling who has really kicked on in the second half of the season. That and the possible return of Harry Kane bodes well for England’s hopes in the Nations League finals in Portugal. The top striker in the bottom half of the table has been Bournemouth’s Callum Wilson with 14 goals, the Cherries centre forward also has ten assists to his name. 2018-19 Premier League top scorers Player Club Nationality Stat 1 Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Arsenal Gabon 22 1 Sadio Mané Liverpool Senegal 22 1 Mohamed Salah Liverpool Egypt 22 4 Sergio Agüero Manchester City Argentina 21 5 Jamie Vardy Leicester City England 18 6 Harry Kane Tottenham Hotspur England 17 6 Raheem Sterling Manchester City England 17 8 Eden Hazard Chelsea Belgium 16 9 Callum Wilson AFC Bournemouth England 14 10 Richarlison Everton Brazil 13 10 Raúl Jiménez Wolverhampton Wanderers Mexico 13 10 Alexandre Lacazette Arsenal France 13 10 Glenn Murray Brighton and Hove Albion England 13 10 Paul Pogba Manchester United France 13 10 Gylfi Sigurdsson Everton Iceland 13 Premier League golden boot winners<doc-sep>No microphone has been detected in the system x You need to give permission for the microphone to be used to be able to use it x Error while trying to use the microphone, the browser may not be compatible x<doc-sep>Premier League record broken as 1,072 goals scored in the 2018-19 season On average there were 2.82 goals per game, with champions Manchester City the highest scorers yet again Thirty-six goals on the final day of the Premier League ensured that the 2018-19 season was the most prolific of all time in a 38-game season. In total, 1,072 goals were scored in 380 matches, Christian Eriksen’s 75th-minute equaliser for Tottenham against Everton registering as the league’s 1,067th goal of the campaign. The Dane’s goal surpassed the previous highest total of 1,066 set in 2011-12. Last season, 1,018 goals were scored 2018-19 – Christian Eriksen’s goal was the 1067th Premier League goal this season; more goals than any other 38-game season of the competition. Glut. — OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) May 12, 2019 In a season that has broken multiple records, on average there were 2.82 goals per match. Matt Targett of Southampton netted the 1,000th goal of the season at the end of April, marking the first time that the landmark had been reached before May. Title winners Manchester City, the first team to retain their title since cross-city rivals United did in 2009, scored the most goals with 95 strikes hitting the net. That is, though, 11 fewer than what Pep Guardiola’s side managed last season when they became the first team to record 100 points. Runners-up Liverpool, 2-0 victors against Wolves on Sunday at a raucous Anfield, were the second-highest scorers with 89. Jurgen Klopp had two of the league’s joint top scorers in his ranks, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane with 22 goals apiece, the duo sharing the golden boot with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang of Arsenal. Aubameyang's side scored 72 goals in total as they finished fifth, just a point behind north London rivals Tottenham. Despite missing out on the top-four, Unai Emery’s men can still qualify for the Champions League if they beat Chelsea in the Europa League final at the end of the month.

Fulham and Cardiff City, also dropping back down to the Championship, both managed 34 goals, the latter scoring two on the final day as they embarrassed Manchester United in a 2-0 win away at Old Trafford. The goals record is just one of the several records to be reset during a memorable season.<doc-sep>

Goal has compiled the individual goal tallies for the highest-scoring Premier League players this season. Check it out below! Premier League 2018-19 Top Scorers Liverpool sensation Mohamed Salah was looking to defend his title after a record-breaking haul of 32 goals last year saw him top the charts, and he again takes home the prize despite only netting 22 times this time around. He will have to share the prize, however, with team-mate Sadio Mane and Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang pulling level on the final day of the season. Sergio Aguero - who netted his 11th hat-trick for the Citizens during his side's 6-0 demolition of Chelsea at the Etihad in February, which equalled Alan Shearer's all-time record of most hat-tricks scored in the Premier League - finished one goal back on 21 successful strikes. A pack including Raheem Sterling, Harry Kane, Jamie Vardy and Eden Hazard were not far behind. *Up to date as of games played on May 12.
