Attackers
Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal)
The Real Madrid star might not have had the greatest of tournaments but he did step up when Portugal needed him the most. From scoring a brace to give them a much-needed draw against Hungary in the group stages, to rising high and scoring a wonderful header against Wales, Ronaldo did have his moments.
Even though Ronaldo did not play the final, he did enough to just about make it to the Team of the tournament.
Gareth Bale (Wales)
The Welsh team returned home as heroes, even though they could not make it to the finals of Euro 2016. Riding Gareth Bale’s excellent performances in the group stages and in the knockout rounds as well, it should come as no surprise that the Welshman makes it to the list.
Bale scored in every group game and was fantastic for Wales. The team won the hearts of millions and Bale was just one reason why the team did so well.
Antoine Griezmann (France)
The Atletico star had a difficult start to the tournament as France tried to find their best formation, but once he was on song he never looked back. He fully deserves the top scorer tag and has been the best player of the tournament quite comfortably. Deschamps made sure he played him in the position he’s caused so much havoc in for Diego Simeone’s side and the Frenchman should finish on the podium of the Ballon d’Or this year at the very least.
Here is the formation of the Best 11 in Euro 2016
Honourable mentions: Ragnar Sigurdsson (Iceland defender) , Andres Iniesta (Spain), Moussa Sissoko (France), Joshua Kimmich (Germany), Mattia De Sciglio (Italy)
