[ad_1]

Cristiano Ronaldo is the all-time highest goalscorer in Euros…

With five goals in three matches, Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is at the summit of the goalscorers list in the ongoing Euro 2020.

The Juventus talisman also touched Iranian forward Ali Daei’s record of 109 international goals with a brace against France in Portugal’s final group stage match on June 24.

Other than Ronaldo, players like Romelu Lukaku, Karim Benzema and Robert Lewandowski also feature in this list. Unfortunately, Lewandowski will not get a chance to increase his tally as Poland have been eliminated from the group stage.

Netherlands are the highest scoring team in the Euro so far with eight goals in three matches. They are followed by Italy, Portugal and Belgium who have seven goals each. Germany and Spain have both scored six goals.
