On July 3, all eight quarterfinalists of the European Cup have been determined. A British media outlet has compiled the best squad from the group stage and the round of 16, with England’s Jude Bellingham being the lone representative from his team.
Goalkeeper: Mamardashvili (Georgia);
Defenders: Kimmich (Germany), Bjorn (Slovenia), Pepe (Portugal), Cucurella (Spain);
Midfielders: Kroos (Germany), Fabian (Spain), Bellingham (England);
Forwards: Musiala (Germany), Mikautadze (Georgia), Gakpo (Netherlands).
Before the tournament began, France and England were the two teams with the highest championship expectations. Despite both reaching the quarterfinals, they combined for only one player, Bellingham, in the best squad, indicating the media’s dissatisfaction with their performances.
The host nation Germany has sailed smoothly, demonstrating excellent form, with Kimmich, Kroos, and Musiala earning spots in the best squad. Their representation across all three lines underscores their overall strength. Spain, another standout favorite, has Cucurella and Fabian as their inclusions.
Notably, Georgia, which was eliminated in the Round of 16, has caught the eye of the British media, with goalkeeper Mamardashvili and forward Mikautadze both making the cut.
