Lautaro Martinez has emerged as the top scorer in the 2024 Copa America with six goals
The Golden Boot is awarded to the tournament’s top scorer, with Lautaro Martinez capping off Argentina’s sensational run to the final with five goals to take the award, including the winner in the title match.
Lautaro had to do some of his best work from the bench, scoring in the opening victory over Canada to set La Albiceleste on their way, before repeating the trick against Chile and then firing a double against Peru in a rare start.
He stepped off the bench to score again in extra time in the final, to give Argentina a record Copa America win.
Lautaro led Venezuela’s Salomon Rondon, with three goals, in the Golden Boot standings, while a clutch of players scored twice.
