Cristiano Ronaldo ended Euro 2020/2021 with five goals. Ronaldo only needed four games to pack five goals. Portugal was eliminated in the last 16.
But he can still smile a little even though he failed to bring Portugal to win Euro 2020/2021. Ronaldo managed to get the Euro 2020/2021 Golden Boot as the top scorer.
Ronaldo’s number of goals in the 2020/2021 European Cup is actually the same as that of the Czech Republic striker Patrik Schick. But the Golden Boot still belongs to Ronaldo.
According to UEFA regulations, if there are the same number of goals it will be determined how many assists that player makes. Ronaldo recorded one assist. While Schick did not make any assists at all.
Euro 2020 Final: Italy Beat England On Penalties
Ronaldo was lucky enough to win the Euro 2020/2021 Golden Shoe. Ronaldo’s position was threatened by England striker Harry Kane. Before the final was held, Kane had collected four goals.
The threat also comes from Kane’s teammate, Raheem Sterling, who has scored three goals. Italy striker Ciro Immobile has also scored three goals.
Luckily for Ronaldo, Kane, Sterling and Immobile were barren in the Euro 2020 final. Two goals in the final between England and Italy were scored by defenders Luke Shaw and Leonardo Bonucci.
Ronaldo’s success in winning the Euro 2020/2021 Golden Boot made the 36-year-old man set another record. Ronaldo became the first player to become the top scorer in the Champions League, Euro, Italian League Serie A, English League and La Liga.
The title of the top scorer in Serie A has only been obtained by Ronaldo in 2021. Ronaldo surpassed Romelu Lukaku in the Italian League Serie A.
