Messi and his Golden Shoes. It was difficult to avoid all the reflections on the glass cases but I did my best to capture as little of them as possible. In this corner of the Barcelona museum are the five golden boots (or shoes, if you want) awarded to Lionel Messi till today.
The European Golden Shoe or Golden Boot is an award presented each season to the leading goalscorer in league matches from the top division of every European national league.
Lionel Messi is the only player to win the award five times, all with Barcelona. Let’s see if he maes it six this year.
Thanks a lot for your views, comments and fav's.
Another nice museum shot. I saw this yesterday before we went out to eat at a restaurant that usually has on display a pair of the VERY large basketball shoes worn by American player Shaquille O'Neal when he was a college player at LSU. I thought I'd take a picture of his shoes like you did of Messi's--but the exhibit is being refurbished and the shoes weren't there! Another time....
