Cristiano Ronaldo is one of four Portugal players to have been named in the official Euro 2016 team of the tournament, but Real Madrid team-mate Gareth Bale has missed out.
Portugal captain Ronaldo scored three goals and supplied three assists to help Fernando Santos side claim their country s first major international trophy.
The Madrid star was replaced by Ricardo Quaresma in the 25th minute of Sunday s 1-0 extra-time victory over hosts France, but his prior contribution had been enough to warrant a spot in the 11 players picked by a panel of experts.

Gareth Bale refused to answer questions over his future after Wales crashed out of Euro 2020 with a 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Denmark.
Kasper Dolberg scored twice before late goals from Joakim Maehle and Martin Braithwaite sent Denmark into the quarter-finals with an emphatic win in Amsterdam.
It brought up the first time Wales have lost successive matches at a major tournament – after their defeat to Italy in the group stage – with Robert Page s team also having Harry Wilson sent off late on.
Indeed, Wales were on the receiving end of a result which saw Denmark become the first team to score four or more goals in consecutive matches in European Championship history.
After a bright start in which he went close with a long-range strike, one of t…
As you can see, Germany are the bosses of Group B at the moment, which goes along with the bookmakers group predictions.
However, the bookmakers were unable to predict a lackluster Holland, who have unprecedentedly lost their first two games in the Group of Death.
With that said, the Oranje can still advance with a tw0-goal victory over Portugal and a Germany win.
All four teams in Group B have everything to play for, with none of them through or eliminated thus far. All signs are pointing to a cracking day of football on Sunday.

Week 4 of the 2019-20 UEFA Champions League will take place between Tuesday and Wednesday this week. Here are the three top matches to watch during this week’s slate.
Napoli vs Red Bull Salzburg (Tuesday, 20:00 GMT)
So far in the current UEFA Champions League, Red Bull Salzburg’s matches have all featured at least five goals in total with both teams scoring. Putting things from a different angle, the reigning Austrian Bundesliga champions are a must-watch team every time they step on a pitch. They have scored 11 goals (second-best mark) and have conceded nine (third-highest number) so far in the Group Stage.
On the other hand, Napoli know a win would practically give them a spot in the knockout stages. The Serie A giants are undefeated in the group stage, already d…

It has finally happened. For the first time in their history, Manchester City have won the Champions League.
Finally City
Many have said it had long been coming.
Manchester City have been one of the best teams in the world for quite some time, with even their fiercest rivals admitting as much on numerous occasions. It took a bit of time for Pep Guardiola to get his team into desired shape when he took charge of the team in 2016, but once they got going, they were the team to beat, or at least the team to play a good game against, which proved challenge enough for many even among the top opponents.
And yet, year after year, the Champions League trophy escaped their grasp. It has been said that Guardiola was brought in to earn them this triumph, and for a long ti…
