What is the longest set of consecutive matches a player has managed to score in Europe’s top 5 Leagues?

Question

How many matches in a row has a football player managed to score in Europe’s Top 5 Leagues?

You might want to add a time frame to the question. Also are you looking for consecutive games the player played, or consecutive league games? That makes a difference if a player scores 5 games in a row, is rested due to injury one game, and then scores 5 games in a row again. — alamoot, Dec 18 '19 at 21:47
Using abbreviations in titles, especially those that are uncommon, especially where they are ungrammatical, does not increase quality. — Nij♦, Dec 19 '19 at 1:15
Further, the inclusion of tags merely to fill out the limit, when this requires excluding tags which are equally applicable, is not likely to make them more searchable. — Nij♦, Dec 19 '19 at 1:16
The question was about the player scoring in the top 5 leagues, So it would make sense to include those leagues in the tags as well? What's your point? — Bikram Jethi, Dec 19 '19 at 5:07
