User:GaiusAD/IFFHS World's Most Effective Top Division Goal Scorer
The IFFHS World's Most Effective Top Division Goal Scorer is a football award given annually from 1997 to 2004 to the player with the best goal ratio (goals/matches played) in a league season in any of the top 60 leagues in the world (as ranked by IFFHS for that given year). The award was given by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS).[1]
Mário Jardel is the only player to have won the award more than once, winning it in 1999 and 2002. He also holds the record for the best ratio with an average of 1.4 goals per matches played in 2002.
José Alfredo Castillo and Mateja Kežman finished in the top three twice but never won the award, both of them finishing at the second and third place each once.
