Real Madrid's Borja Mayoral set Spain on the way to victory in the UEFA European Under-19 Championship final, and scooped the tournament top scorers' prize too.
Mayoral's third goal at the final tournament moved him clear of the nine players who scored twice in Greece. Among that number was Russia's Ramil Sheydaev, who set a new mark for the season overall, qualifying included. The Zenit man scored against Spain in the group stage and Greece in the semi-finals.
That latter strike took Sheydaev to 12 for the season, surpassing the previous record set by Serbia and Montenegro's Borko Veselinović and matched by Portugal's André Silva and Davie Selke of Germany in 2013/14. Selke also equalled the finals record with six last season, matching the total of Spain's Álvaro Morata in 2010/11.
