UEFA, the European football governing body, has announced that the Euro 2024 Golden Boot will be shared if Sunday’s final between England and Spain fails to produce a clear winner.
Six players are currently tied for the leading scorer position: England’s Harry Kane, Spain’s Dani Olmo, Netherlands’ Cody Gakpo, Germany’s Jamal Musiala, Slovakia’s Ivan Schranz, and Georgia’s Georges Mikautadze.
Kane and Olmo have the opportunity to claim the award outright in the title decider at the Olympiastadion Berlin by scoring a fourth goal.
In the 2020 edition, Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo won the prize over Czechia’s Patrik Schick, despite both players scoring five goals. Ronaldo secured the award due to registering an assist, while Schick did not.
Spain’s Fabian Ruiz and England’s Jude Bellingham are also in contention for the Golden Boot, having scored two goals each. However, they would need to score two goals in the final to have a chance at winning the award.
