Kane, Olmo among winners of Euro 2024 Golden Boot award

BERLIN, July 15 (AP): England striker Harry Kane finished Euro 2024 in a six-way tie for the Golden Boot top scorer as his team lost the final 2-1 to Spain. It was another individual accolade for a player yet to win a major trophy for club or country.

Kane ended the tournament tied on three goals with Spain midfielder Dani Olmo, Germany midfielder Jamal Musiala, Netherlands forward Cody Gakpo, Slovakia winger Ivan Schranz and Georgia striker Georges Mikautadze.

Kane has now been a runner-up in back-to-back European Championship finals after England's loss to Italy three years ago, and a runner-up in one Champions League final and two English League Cups. He's won a string of individual awards, including Bundesliga top scorer last season at Bayern Munich, but the German club had its first season without a trophy since 2012.

Olmo's main contribution to Spain's win in the final was defensive, as he cleared Marc Guéhi's header off the line to keep his team in the lead late on. "I told him that he is my top scorer because his save counts as a goal for me," goalkeeper Unai Simón said.
