Liverpool –
Premier League 2021/2022 brought two players as the top scorer at the end of the season. Mohamed Salah and Son Heung-min be the winner.
In the last Premier League match, Sunday (22/5/2022) night WIB, Salah led with 22 goals, one goal ahead of Son so the competition became tight.
Salah, whose condition is not fit, is kept on the bench when Liverpool hosting Wolverhampton. Meanwhile, Son started with Harry Kane on the front lines.
When Tottenham were 3-0 up, Son had not scored at all and neither was Salah. Son had overtaken Salah with his two consecutive goals against Norwich.
However, Salah equalized thanks to his one goal against Wolves. Until the match ended, Son and Salah could not add goals so both were locked at 23.
Thus, the Premier League crowned both of them as top scorers with the 2021/2022 Premier League with 23 goals. Son is arguably great because none of his goals have come from penalties, while Salah has eight.

However, Salah also leads the list of top assists with 13 pieces, one ahead of team mate Trent Alexander-Arnold. Salah also received two personal awards as solace for failing to win the Premier League.
For Salah, this is his third top scorer title in the last five years playing at the club Premier League. Son won his inaugural golden boot and became the first Asian player to win it.
