Beth Mead won the Golden Boot as her six goals helped fire England to Euro 2022 glory. The Arsenal forward netted the same number as Alexandra Popp but edged out the German due to a greater number of assists.

The race for the Women’s Euro 2022 Golden Boot was fascinating, with so many great goalscorers taking part in England. Norway’s Ada Hegerberg started as one of the favourites, having returned to the international fold after a five-year absence while her Scandinavian colleagues Pernille Harder (Denmark) and Stina Blackstenius (Sweden) were are also in with a shout.

However, England’s supersub Alessia Russo finished third with four goals – including a memorable back-heel strike in the semi-finals against Sweden.
