Gakpo Has a Chance to Win the Euro 2024 Golden Boot

Dutch striker Cody Gakpo has been given a golden opportunity to win the top scorer title at the UEFA Euro 2024 tournament, following the conclusion of the quarter-final matches currently taking place in Germany. Gakpo and his national team advanced to the semi-finals of Euro 2024 at the expense of Turkey, winning 2-1 in the match held last Saturday evening at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.

Gakpo shares the lead in the Euro 2024 top scorers' chart with three goals, equal with Germany's Jamal Musiala, Slovakia's Ivan Šrancs, and Georgia's Giorgi Mikautadze.
