Aubameyang, Salah, Mane share Golden Boot award

For the first time in 20 years, the Premier League's Golden Boot award will be shared between three players, as the African trio of Mohamed Salah, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and Sadio Mane finished the season with 22 goals.

Salah - last season's Golden Boot winner - led all scorers heading into the final day before Aubameyang scored a brace in Arsenal's victory over Burnley to draw level with the Liverpool superstar.

Salah's teammate, Mane, threw his name into the mix with a late goal in Liverpool's win over Wolverhampton to secure a spot atop the scoring chart.

There have been a pair of three-way ties for the top-scorer award in Premier League history.

Michael Owen, Dwight Yorke, and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink shared the Golden Boot after finishing the 1998-99 campaign with 18 goals - which is the record for the fewest goals scored to win the award. There was also a three-way tie the previous season after Owen, Chris Sutton, and Dion Dublin ended the 1997-98 season with 18 goals as well.

The only other time in which there was a share for the lead was 2011 after Carlos Tevez and Dimitar Berbatov scored a league-leading 20 goals each.
