EURO 2024: UEFA to Split Golden Boot Among Six Players

In an unprecedented move, UEFA has announced that the EURO 2024 Golden Boot will be split between six players if there is no clear winner after Sunday’s final between England and Spain. This decision comes as no single player has managed to outscore the others in the tournament.

At EURO 2020, Cristiano Ronaldo clinched the Golden Boot despite being tied for five goals with Czech Republic’s Patrik Schick, due to additional assists. However, the current scenario presents a more complex challenge.

Harry Kane (England), Dani Olmo (Spain), Cody Gakpo (Netherlands), Georges Mikautadze (Georgia), Jamal Musiala (Germany), and Ivan Schranz (Slovakia) are all tied with six goals each. With no player having scored more than three goals, UEFA has confirmed that the prize will be shared among these six prolific scorers unless the final sees a standout performance.
