Winning the European Championship guarantees you continental glory, but who are the top-scorers of the tournament?

So who has scored the most goals in European Championship competition history? Goal takes a look.

European Championship: Who is the all-time record goalscorer?

Cristiano Ronaldo currently holds the record as the all-time top-scorer in the European Championships with 14 goals.

He broke the record of nine goals previously set by France icon Michel Platini, with a penalty against Hungary in Euro 2020.

Ronaldo scored the 87th-minute penalty to mark his 10th goal in the competition.

Ronaldo has continued to break records during Euro 2020, becoming the all-time top scorer in the World Cup and European Championship combined following his two goals against France in the final group stage game.

He also became the first player to feature at five finals tournaments, representing Portugal at every Euros since his country hosted the tournament in 2004. 

The Portugal captain is followed by Platini on nine goals, and then Alan Shearer and Antoine Griezmann on seven goals apiece.
