Cristiano Ronaldo won the Golden Boot award at the recently-concluded Euro 2020. The superstar scored five goals in four matches for Portugal at Euro 2020.Cristiano Ronaldo failed to help his country defend their European title as Portugal crashed out after a 1-0 loss to Belgium in the Round of 16. It has been a disappointing season overall for the Portuguese forward in terms of team trophies as he also failed to win the Champions League and Serie A with his club, Juventus.Portugal were expected to go further at Euro 2020 but flattered to deceive. Ronaldo, however, was on fire for the little time he spent on the pitch. His tally of five goals was matched only by Czech Republic's Patrik Schick, who played an extra game at the recently-concluded Euro 2020.
However, the Golden Boot award was given to Cristiano Ronaldo on the basis of the fact that he also provided an assist, which Schick failed to do.
The goal-scoring exploits of the two forwards was one of the many narratives at Euro 2020 which saw Italy make a title-winning comeback after missing out on the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
