1. Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal) – 14 Goals
Cristiano Ronaldo is arguably the greatest footballer of all time, and his performances in the European Championship have been nothing short of exceptional. The Portuguese star has scored 14 goals in the tournament so far, which is a record. He first made his mark in the competition in 2004 when he scored twice against Greece in the final, although Portugal lost the match. He went on to lead his team to victory in the 2016 tournament, where he scored three goals, including the winner in the final against France.
2. Michel Platini (France) – 9 Goals
Michel Platini is widely considered as one of the greatest footballers in history. The Frenchman led his team to victory in the 1984 European Championship, where he scored a remarkable nine goals. He achieved this feat in just five matches, which is still a record to this day. Platini’s goals helped France secure their first major international trophy, and he was rightly named the Player of the Tournament.
3. Alan Shearer (England) – 7 Goals
Alan Shearer is one of the greatest strikers in the history of English football, and he had a successful stint in the European Championship as well. He scored seven goals in the tournament, which is a joint-third record. Shearer was part of the England team that reached the semi-finals in 1996, where he scored five goals, including a hat-trick against the Netherlands in the group stage.
4. Antoine Griezmann (France) – 7 Goals
Antoine Griezmann is one of the most talented footballers of his generation, and he has already made his mark in the European Championship. The Frenchman scored six goals in the 2016 tournament, where he led his team to the final, although they lost to Portugal. Griezmann was named the Player of the Tournament for his performances, and he has the potential to climb up the all-time goal-scoring charts in the future.
In conclusion, these are the top five all-time leading goal-scorers in the European Championship. These players have left a lasting impact on the tournament with their exceptional performances and have cemented their place in football history. As we gear up for another exciting edition of the Euro, it will be interesting to see if any of these records are broken, or if a new star emerges and makes a mark in the competition.
