Euro 2024 qualifying saw some stars come into incredible scoring form and they will be hoping to continue that this summer.
The European Championships in Germany are just around the corner with the action set to kick-off on Friday, June 14.
Countries will be hoping that their key players step up on the big stage as they compete against each other for glory.
And Belgium, Portugal, France and Scotland will all be delighted with their star men ahead of the tournament…
Who scored the most goals in Euro 2024 qualifying?
Romelu Lukaku ended Euro 2024 qualifying with the most goals.
He scored 14 times in only eight games as Belgium won Group F without losing.
The Red Devils only scored 22 goals during qualifying, meaning Lukaku played a major part in helping his country progress.
By netting four times against Azerbaijan in the final group game, the striker set a new record for the highest amount of goals scored in a qualifying campaign.
And ahead of the tournament, Lukaku scored twice against Luxembourg, so he’s heading to Germany in red-hot form.
But Lukaku wasn’t the only man to reach double figures as Cristiano Ronaldo delivered once more for his country.
Ronaldo scored ten in ten as Portugal won every match in Group J.

The midfielder stepped up for the Tartan Army and sent them through to the major tournament, finishing above Norway in Group A.
But McTominay hasn’t played a single minute of Scotland’s pre-tournament friendlies, so he’ll be ring-rusty for that huge opener against Germany, live on talkSPORT.
