 UEFA Nations League Top Scorers Revealed: Viktor Gyokeres Edges Ronaldo in Thrilling Race

UEFA Nations League Top Scorers Revealed: Viktor Gyokeres Edges Ronaldo in Thrilling Race

As the curtains closed on a breathtaking UEFA Nations League campaign, Sweden’s Viktor Gyokeres emerged as the top scorer with nine goals, narrowly surpassing Portugal’s legendary forward Cristiano Ronaldo, who finished with eight.

The final, played at the Allianz Arena in Munich, saw Portugal lift the trophy after a dramatic 5-3 penalty shootout win over Spain, following a tense 2-2 draw after extra time.

⚽ Final Match Highlights:

The Nations League final delivered high-octane football as goals from Mikel Oyarzabal, Martín Zubimendi, Nuno Mendes, and the ever-reliable Cristiano Ronaldo ensured fans were kept on the edge of their seats.

But beyond the trophy, the battle for top goal scorer was just as intense.

🥇 Final Top Scorers List:

  • Viktor Gyokeres (Sweden) – 9 goals

  • Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal) – 8 goals

  • Erling Haaland (Norway) – 7 goals

  • Georges Mikautadze (Georgia) – 7 goals

  • Răzvan Marin (Romania) – 6 goals

💬 Opinion: A New Name at the Top – But the King Still Roars

While Gyokeres’ rise to the top of the scoring charts is an exciting development for Sweden — and a deserved personal accolade — Cristiano Ronaldo’s dominance at age 40 remains nothing short of remarkable.

He scored in the final, led Portugal with heart, and once again proved why he’s “addicted to winning,” as Vinicius Jr. fittingly said.

Still, Viktor Gyokeres is no fluke — with a powerful presence and sharp finishing, he’s making his mark on the international stage and could soon be on the radar of Europe’s top clubs if he’s not already.

🤔 What’s Next?

With EURO 2028 and the 2026 World Cup around the corner, these top scorers — especially rising stars like Gyokeres, Haaland, and Mikautadze — are names to watch.

And for Ronaldo? If this was his final Nations League campaign, it was a glorious farewell.

💥 Who impressed you most this Nations League? Can Gyokeres keep this momentum going into the next big tournament? Join the conversation with #NationsLeague and #TalkTalkNigeriaSports.
