Hey,

We knew that many of you were expecting it so we did it!

This is the new endpoint : "TopScorers"
It returns you the ranking of the top 20 players in a league.

How it is calculated:
1 : The player that has scored the fewer number of penalties
2 : The player that has delivered the higher number of goal assists
3 : The player that scored their goals in the greater number of matches
4 : The player that played the fewer minutes
5 : The player that plays for the team placed higher on the table
6 : The player that received fewer red cards
7 : The player that received fewer yellow cards
