Top scorer in 2020: Lewandowski edges out Ronaldo, Lukaku and Haaland

Robert Lewandowski has finished the top scorer playing in Europe for club and country for the second calendar year running.

The Poland striker followed up his 54 goals in 2019 by plundering another 47 this year as Bayern München did the domestic double and won the UEFA Champions League. Lewandowski's exploits also earned him the prestigious UEFA Men's Player of the Year and Best FIFA Men's Player awards.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who has finished a calendar year as Europe's top marksman four times in the past decade and not been outside the top ten since 2009, came in three behind Lewandowski with Romelu Lukaku (the 16-goal top scorer in 2020 UEFA competition) and Erling Braut Haaland hot on their heels. Lionel Messi, second last year on 50, just misses out on the top ten for the first time since 2008.
