Spain striker Pola finished as UEFA European Under-21 Futsal Tournament finals top scorer as his tally of five goals proved enough for the honour.
Pola feat
Pola's side exited in the semi-finals but at that point his five group stage goals left him one clear of the nearest challenger, Mohammed Attaibi, whose Netherlands side did not make the last four. Russia's final winner Dmitri Prudnikov and Italy's Gabriel Lima both scored once in the decider to join Attaibi on four goals, while Dmitri Lyskov managed two strikes to go on to the same total. Overall the 15 games produced 71 goals, the most being nine in the final.
Lima level with El Adel
Lima's goal did have one consolation, as it proved his ninth of the entire competition, drawing him level with Netherlands player Sofian El Adel, whose tally of eight in qualifying was unmatched. Just behind them were El Adel's team-mate Attaibi plus Dario Marinović of Croatia and Pola.
