3. Eder
We all know the goal scored by Eder against France in the finals meant so much to Portugal and more importantly to Ronaldo as he got injured mid game and couldn’t play. Eder was the Ronaldo’s substitute and he knew the pressure was immense but he made a way through for his team by scoring a beautiful goal and wining the UEFA cup.

Marek hamsik’s goal against Russia was a bold and a confident goal as he went all in with his powerful shot aiming for the top corner bagging one in for the team. Midfielder Marek Hamsik and his distinctive mohawk hairstyle will feature at Euro 2020 as he was included in Slovakia coach.
5. Xherdan Shaqiri
Not to forget, Xherdan Shaqiri’s bicycle goal against Poland dropped everybody’s jaw because of how amazing the play was that ended with an even more amazing goal. Big names like Tanguy N’Dombele, Dimitri Payet and Houssem Aouar have all been left out for the EURO 2020 Squads.

TOP SAVES
1. Yann Sommer
For a moment we all thought he was going to score that goal against Switzerland in the Euro match in 2016 as he made a beautiful run, but Yann Sommer took us all my surprise with that beautiful save he made, which just showed us how focused and quick he was. We can experience it all again in the upcoming Euro games and Yann Sommer with Switzerland Squad.
2. Igor Akinfeev
Igor Akinfeev is definitely one of the best goal keepers out there. His back-to-back saves against England just showed how talented and quick he is. Both the shots on the goal by England were such powerful shot but Igor managed to save both the shots. But the big name is been missing from the list since 2018.
3. Hannes Halldorsson
Talking about reactions if you all remember, Ronaldo flicking the ball to his teammate as he powerfully heads it in the goal post but Hannes Halldorsson’s smart reaction saves the team from concealing a goal
4. Eidur Smari Gudjohnsen
Gudjohnsen running from the Left-Wing worried Portugal fans but Rui Patricio comes forward to block the striker from taking a shot and successfully prevents a goal by his double save.
