The 2024 UEFA Nations League group stage ended on Tuesday night and Pepeta will be taking a look at the top goal scorers at this stage of the competition.
Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyokeres stormed to the top of the scoring charts in the competition after Sweden smashed Azerbaijan 6-0 at the Strawberry Arena to secure first place in C1, with four of those goals coming from him.

Gyokeres’ quadruple was a continuation of the sparkling form he has been in this season and saw him finish the campaign with nine goals, eclipsing the next-best scorer, Norway’s Erling Haaland.
The Manchester City star also netted a treble in their final game as they hammered Kazakhstan 5-0, but he finished two shy of his Nordic nemesis with seven goals from six games in B3.
Răzvan Marin features surprisingly high on the list of top goal-scorers after finding the net six times in five appearances for Romania. The midfielder has only scored twice in 11 Serie A games for Cagliari this season.
Cristiano Ronaldo is used to finishing above everyone else on these lists, especially when it comes to international football, but he will have to suffice with joint-fourth after scoring five goals for Portugal.
The top ten goal scorers in the Uefa Nations League 2024 group stage:
- Viktor Gyokeres (Sweden) – 9
- Erling Haaland (Norway) – 7
