Advertisement

Euro
2024
has
reached
its
critical
stage.
Out
of
the
32
teams
that
entered
with
dreams
of
winning
the
title,
only
four
remain,
providing
fans
with
outstanding
individual
performances
along
the
way.

The
younger
generation
have
seemingly
taken
over
on
the
big
stage
but
five
players
from
La
Liga
have
shone
brightest
so
far;
two
from
Real
Madrid,
two
from
Barcelona
and
one
from
Athletic
Bilbao.
All
five
players
are
below
the
age
of
22.

Real
Madrid’s
Jude
Bellingham
has
netted
twice
for
England
and
left
tongues
wagging
with
his
bicycle
kick
goal
against
Slovakia.
He
has
recorded
88.4%
passing
accuracy,
13
successful
dribbles
and
won
six
tackles.
His
country
is
a
step
away
from
reaching
the
final.

Jude’s
club
teammate
Arda
Guler
added
two
assists
to
his
peach
of
a
goal
for
Turkey.
The
youngster
also
created
seven
chances
as
his
country
marched
on
to
the
quarterfinals.

Spain
have
been
heavily
reliant
on
the
trio
of
Pedri,
Williams
and
Yamal
in
their
journey
to
the
last
four.
Barcelona’s
Pedri
created
10
chances
and
added
one
assist
before
an
injury
against
Germany
ended
his
Euros
run.


England
reach
Euro
2024
semis
on
penalties

Yamal
at
just
16
has
three
assists
to
his
name,
created
14
chances
and
completed
12
dribbles
whilst
Athletic
Club’s
winger
Nico
has
one
goal
and
one
assist
in
additition
to
11
successful
dribbles.

Four
of
these
five
players
are
still
in
the
running
for
the
title.
Who
will
win
it?
