- Top 5 Best Players at Euros 2024 So far
The group stage of Euro 2024 ended yesterday, and we are expecting some heavyweight clashes in the knockout rounds. The Group stage served us 92 entertaining matches, with some enjoyable performances from countries like Germany, Georgia, Turkey, and Spain.
Although some countries are yet to get into their groove at this tournament, some players have hit the ground running.
Let’s rank the Top 5 Best Players at Euros 2024 so far after the group stage matches.
5 – Ngolo Kante
Ngolo Kante is back helping the French national team like he never left. The Frenchman won man of the match awards in France’s first two matches of the tournament.
The highlight of France’s opening match against Austria was when Ngolo Kante raced back to neutralize a clear Austrian attack on goal after Saliba made a mistake.
He created the most chances for Le Blues in that match while making 6 recoveries and 1 last man tackle. Kante also remained solid for France against The Netherlands and Poland.
Fabian Ruiz
Ruiz is running things in midfield for Spain so far this tournament. He has only played two games, but he has been effective.
With one goal and assist to his name already, Spain will need him to continue his good form if they are to advance into the later stages of the competitions
Toni Kroos
The orchestrator for one of the most impressive teams at the tournament. With Toni Kroos, you know exactly what you are getting during a game, and he has been reliable at the Euros for Germany so far.
The Real Madrid Legend has completed the most passes in every single match Germany has played at the Euros so far. He has also created 9 chances at this stage of the tournament. He is undoubtedly the best midfielder in the world currently.
Jamal Musiala
Jamal Musiala started the Euros with a bang, and he is one of the reasons why pundits are backing Germany to win the Euros this summer.
Musiala scored in each of the first two games, and even in Germany’s last match that he didn’t score, he created the most chances, and completed the most dribbles.
Georges Mikautadze
Fair play to Mikautadze, he has led his nation into the round of 16 in their first ever major tournament. With every factor considered, he has been the best player at Euro 2024 so far.
He scored Georgia’s equalizer against Turkey, but they went on to lose that match.
He scored the opening goal of their 1-1 draw against Czechia, and he grabbed a goal and assist as he helped Georgia beat Portugal to secure their spot in the knockout rounds.
