Euro 2016: 5 of the paciest players playing in the tournament

#5 Jordi Alba (Spain)

Jordi Alba can really terrify attacks with his marauding runs

Jordi Alba had a magnificent Euro 2012. It was the stage that he really announced himself on the international level as a pacy left back with plenty of guile and finesse in equal measure. His run to seal Italy’s fate in the final tore open their defense and broke Italian hearts.

Alba is fighting off strong competition from Cesar Azpilicueta for the left back slot in the first team and looks to be the favourite to start. If Spain begins to find their groove in France, expect Alba to go charging down the left flank and looking to get in behind opposition defenses.
