Cristiano Ronaldo and Ciro Immobile are both on 30 Serie A goals this season, something that had only happened once in 1950-51.
The race for the Scudetto might be almost over, but the Capocannoniere title is wide open.
Juventus beat Lazio 2-1 this evening, with Ronaldo bagging a brace and Immobile getting the consolation.
It put both of these strikers on 30 Serie A goals for the season, having both converted 12 penalties.
The one and only time two players scored over 30 goals in the same Serie A season was 1950-51 with Gunnar Nordahl (Milan) and Istvan Nyers (Inter).
They can now try to challenge the all-time Serie A record of 36 goals set by Gonzalo Higuain for Maurizio Sarri’s Napoli in 2015-16.
Immobile also becomes only the fifth Italian player to score at least 30 goals in a single Serie A campaign, after Giuseppe Meazza in 1929-30, Felice Borel in 1933-34, Antonio Angelillo in 1958-59 and Luca Toni in 2005-06.
Meanwhile, Ronaldo is the third Juventus player to hit the 30-goal mark in Serie A after Borel in 1933-34 and John Hansen in 1951-52.

Cr7 is so desperate for the top scorer award that he had to show his childishness and frustration by trying to tell juv goal keeper were immobile will kick his penalty.At his age and standards that’s the most shameful way to show ur desire to win an individual award.each match he prays for a penalty to occur and he celebrates them as if he jst scored in a WC final.i really pity his fans becoz deep inside them they know he is a mediocre player and if he doesn’t get those penalties and tap ins he can’t score 20 goals in a season.12 penalty goals and people say he is having a superb season😩.I know even juv president is ashamed when he sees Cr7 celebrating those penalties preciously.Dyballa is the best juv player this season,without him juv would be in mid table
