Copa America Golden Boot winners list so far

Bengaluru, July 10: The stage is set for the Copa America Final and the clash promises to be a mouthwatering one as giants Brazil and Argentina are set to fight it out for the coveted crown.

Former Barcelona teammates Lionel Messi and Neymar is set to face off in the final and here we take a walk down memory lane to see the past winners of the Golden Boot.

The Argentine skipper has scored four goals so far, one more than teammate Lautaro Martinez. The other player with four to his name is Luis Diaz, but with Colombia out of the race, Messi is the favourite to pick up the award. Meanwhile Neymar has scored two goals so far including several other players. While Messi leads the pack, Martinez and Neymar are hot on his heels along with Papu Gomez and Lucas Paqueta.
