Women's Under-17 EURO: The top five goals

Records

  • Netherlands are the fifth different nation to win the event after Germany (8 titles), Spain (4), France (1) and Poland (1).
  • Norway were in their first final, becoming the tenth different nation to reach the decider.
  • This was only the second final after 2012/13 to involve neither Germany nor Spain, and the first time neither side reached the last four.
  • Spain went out in the group stage for the first time since the round was introduced in 2013/14 and ended a run of reaching ten straight semi-finals. However, they did qualify for the 14th time – a new outright record, one ahead of Germany.
  • The Faroe Islands hosted their first UEFA final tournament, and took part in their first UEFA women's final tournament.
