Euro 2024 Golden Boot: top goalscorers, game by game
Who’s winning the battle to be top scorer at the European Championship in Germany? Live and updated throughout the tournament
The Golden Boot is awarded to the player who scores the most goals in the tournament. If there are multiple players with the same number of goals, the tie is broken by assists – as was the case at Euro 2020, where Cristiano Ronaldo (five goals, one assist) edged out Czech striker Patrik Schick (five goals, no assists).
If the top scorers also have equal assists, the winner will be the player with the fewest total minutes in the tournament. This happened at Euro 2012, where Spain’s Fernando Torres (189 minutes) pipped Mario Gomez of Germany (282 minutes) after both men notched three goals and one assist each.
