Yugoslavia's Milan Galić grabbed the first EURO goal of the inaugural finals in 1960, the first of nine goals in what remains the highest-scoring game in tournament history.
It took 24 years for Alain Giresse to bring up the century but, with the finals continuing to expand, another 24 years later Xavi Hernández was an appropriate (if surprise) scorer of goal number 500. Austria's Romano Schmid became the latest landmark scorer, notching the 900th finals goal on Matchday 3 of EURO 2024. Who will make it 1,000?
