Three players share the top spot in the scoring chart at the U20 Women's World Cup, each having found the net 5 times.
The race for the golden boot is particularly fierce in Poland. With 5 goals and 1 assist, Pau Comendador (Spain) and Annika Paz (Argentina) stand out as the top scorers. However, they are not alone at the top. Although Choe Yon has yet to register an assist, she represents North Korea's hopes with 5 goals of her own.
Behind this trio, 6 other players have scored 4 times. Karen Appiah (Italy), Celia Segura (Spain), Rachel Maltby (England), Marisa Garcia (Spain), Huang Jiaxin (China), and Kaylee Hunter (Canada) are all serious contenders for the top spots. Italy and Spain will clash in the semifinals, a true test for their attacks. Choe Yon also has a chance to shine with North Korea.
Three African forwards have each scored 3 goals before their elimination. Nigerian players Winner Onajite David and Ramotolahi Kareem, along with Benin's Romaine Gandonou, have made their mark.
