The group stage at Euro 2020 has drawn to a close so it's time to take a look at which players have impressed the most so far.

Throughout the European Championship matches so far, the BBC have been asking BBC Sport readers to score each player involved out of 10.

Based on players who featured for at least 60 minutes in two of their nations' three matches, they have worked out the team of the tournament to this point.

Belgium's Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne ranks highest of all players with an average score of 8.36, but there's no room in the team for top goalscorer Cristiano Ronaldo - or any players from England, Scotland and Wales.

Denmark's Kasper Schmeichel is the highest scoring goalkeeper with an average of 7.41, which is enough to see him beat Wales' top-rated player Danny Ward (7.18).

Schmeichel is ed in your side by team-mate Simon Kjaer, whose average of 7.75 sees him rank third among defenders behind North Macedonia's Ezgjan Alioski and Italy's Leonardo Spinazzola.

Leeds United's Alioski is, perhaps surprisingly after his side finished bottom of Group C with three defeats, the second highest scorer overall with 8.19, while Spinazzola managed 7.77.

Spinazzola is one of three players selected from Roberto Mancini's impressive Italy, who won all three of their Group A games, along with midfielder Manuel Locatelli (7.8 ) and forward Ciro Immobile (7.74)

Locatelli is ed in a midfield four by Belgium's De Bruyne, the Netherlands' Georginio Wijnaldum (8.06) and Poland's Mateusz Klich (7.81) - also of Leeds United - despite his side's bottom-placed finish in Group E.

In an exciting forward line, Sweden's 21-year-old talent Alexander Isak (7.84) and Belgian Romelu Lukaku (7.8 ) partner Immobile.

That means there's no room for Ronaldo (7.2), who has scored five goals in three games and equalled the men's international goalscoring record on Wednesday.

A guy who made Coca-Cola lose $4 billion in a second.
The current highest goal scorer in the tournament.

Just look at this rubbish list. Alioski, a wing back will play CB lol. Only one true defender in the squad, Kjaer and he is only there because of sentiments, he helped Eriksen. Spinazzola another wing back will play CB? grin
Locatelli, a bonafide CM will play wing back, does he even have the speed/stamina for such position??

Who dafuq is Klich?
Who will break up play in midfield??
Isak a target man like Lukaku will come in from the left wing?? shocked
Na wa for English fans. grin grin cheesy

This is why no British manager has won anything in the past 10 years.

Brits are not known for their footballing knowledge. They are only good at talking. Even their so called legends are failing all over Europe but they know how to talk big on TV.

The current highest goal scorer in the present competition with 5goals is not included, can you imagine...

The person who compiled it is drunk and jealous...

Not because I love Ronaldo, but being the current highest goal scorer, his name should be on the list

Rubbish,

Hater's.

They can pick all their village people, but we know only 1 goat and the name is CR 7.

He is a phenomenon, a legend and a fighter.

Sportsmen including FIFA and EURO and suffering Ronaldophobia. I was before but is is time to say the truth that Ronaldo is the greatest of our time. Messi is good but cant do it alone. Ronaldo does it alone and that is the difference.

If Ronaldo happens to be a politician, he would steal all that belongs to others just for him to be glorified.


Football wasn't invented for award or records. It's primarily meant to ENTERTAIN

The entertainers are worshipped and ed for ever while the record breakers are only ed when their record is about to be broken.

Seems you have been watching something else.
He is only contributing by scoring penalties and simple 18-yard tap-ins.
Anyone can score penalities. He is not on the list at the moment, and that is an objective decision.
