In this European Football Championship, there is no shortage of curiosities.

One of the EURO 2024 broadcasters presented a graphic showing the leaders in the race for the "Golden Boot."

In another presented statistic, the goals scored into own nets are in the lead. There were even six such own goals in this championship.

Romelu Lukaku's goals that were not counted after VAR also became a peculiar folklore. If all of the Belgian's goals were counted, then he would be at the top of this statistical graph and be the top scorer of the European Championship.

Georges Mikautadze, Jamal Musiala, and Ivan Schranz have each scored 2 goals.

WTF IS THIS GRAPHIC? 😭😭 pic.twitter.com/y6WuvJyRRt
