Greenwood and Dembele are fiercely competing for the 2025 Ballon d'Or. |
The Ligue 1 season concluded with a dramatic and closely contested scoring race between PSG's Dembele and Marseille's Greenwood. Both finished with 21 goals, but the French striker was crowned top scorer due to scoring fewer goals from penalties.
In Marseille's 4-2 victory over Rennes on the morning of May 18th, Greenwood scored a brace and was given the opportunity to complete a hat-trick from the penalty spot. However, the former Manchester United striker missed the penalty, ending the season with 21 goals and missing the chance to overtake Dembele.
However, Greenwood's performance was still very impressive. He was a key factor in helping Marseille finish as runners-up in Ligue 1 with 21 goals and 5 assists, demonstrating remarkable progress this season.
Meanwhile, Dembele led the Golden Boot race for most of the season, despite missing the final three rounds due to a muscle injury. Dembele finished the season with 21 goals and 6 assists. The fact that he only scored one penalty, compared to Greenwood's seven, was a key factor in his winning the 2024/25 Ligue 1 Golden Boot.
Dembele's next goal is the 2025 Ballon d'Or. If he and PSG defeat Inter Milan and win the Champions League this season, the French striker will likely be unrivaled in the Ballon d'Or race.
