The 2006 – 07 season was a personal high for Totti as he scored 26 goals in Serie A , as well as another six between the Champions League ( scoring three times in the group stage and once in the round of 16 tie against Lyon ) and the Coppa Italia , in addition to 15 assists in 50 games across all competitions . Despite their elimination from the Champions League by Manchester United in the quarter-finals , and a second-place finish in the league , Roma won the Coppa Italia final against league champions Inter with a 6 – 2 victory at home ( Totti scored the opening goal after 50 seconds ) and a 2 – 1 defeat at the San Siro in Milan . Totti finished the season as Serie A top scorer with 26 goals , and on 17 June , he also received the ESM European Golden Shoe award as the top European goalscorer of the season . Despite being the highest active goalscorer in Serie A , he was not among the finalists for the 2007 FIFA World Player of the Year due to his absence from the national team , although he was nominated for the 2007 Ballon d'Or , finishing tenth in the voting
