*Up to date as of games played on July 11.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Patrik Schick currently lead the pack as Euro 2020 top scorers with five goals to their name, the Portugal captain breaking numerous scoring records in the process.
He broke France icon Michel Platini's previous record of nine goals scored at European Championships when he netted a penalty against Hungary before scoring his 11th goal in stoppage time.
Ronaldo has set even more milestones, becoming the oldest player to score for Portugal at a major tournament at age 36 years, 130 days. He broke the record set by Pepe at World Cup 2018 (35 years, 124 days).
The Juventus forward also became the oldest player to score at least two goals in a European Championship match, surpassing the record set by Andriy Schevchenko when he was 35 years, 256 days.
With Portugal having been eliminated by Belgium, however, Ronaldo's tally could soon be surpassed. He is matched by Czech Republic sensation Patrik Schick, but the Czechs were eliminated in the quarter-final.
England striker Harry Kane, who was the top scorer at the last World Cup, could well take home the Golden Boot at the Euros with England playing Italy in the final on July 11.
The Tottenham forward has four goals after his strike against Denmark in the semi-final, while Raheem Sterling is one behind him on three.
