British site Dailymail voted for the best 11 players of the Euro 2024 group stage, Mbappe was surprisingly named. On the other hand, it was even more surprising when Lukaku escaped the worst squad.
Kylian Mbappe was named as the leading striker in the best XI of the group stage, despite the French striker having only scored one goal so far at Euro 2024.
Mbappe’s goal was scored from a penalty kick against Poland, not the “live ball” phase of sprinting, passing the ball past the opponent’s defender and then finishing, as is often the case with Mbappe.

Also in the group stage, the French captain did not play in the match where France drew 0-0 with the Netherlands. In addition, Mbappe did not play the entire match against Austria (France won 1-0 thanks to an own goal). He left the field after a collision with an Austrian defender that left him with a nose injury.
Mbappe missed many opportunities to face the opposing goalkeeper in the group stage, with at least 2 situations like this in the match against Austria, as well as 2 situations facing the Polish goalkeeper but ended. unsuccessful.
Team of 11 best players.
In the squad of 11 best players in the group stage, there are very worthy names such as midfielder Kevin De Bruyne (Belgium), Toni Kroos (Germany), midfielder Bastoni (Italy), or right back Kimmich (Germany). .
Spain and Germany are the teams with the most players: 2 players. Spanish players include left back Cucurella, midfielder Fabian Ruiz and right wing striker. The German players in this squad include Toni Kroos and Kimmich as mentioned.
Meanwhile, the most surprising person was goalkeeper Mamardashvili (Georgia). Dailymail itself made a mistake when drawing a graphic of Portuguese winger Bernando Silva as a Spaniard.

On the other hand, the worst squad of the Euro 2024 group stage surprisingly does not include striker Lukaku of the Belgian team. This is an even more surprising detail than Mbappe being named in the best team.
Lukaku has had a number of unthinkable misses in Belgium’s three group stage matches, including a miss in front of an open goal. Lukaku has failed to score in the first phase of this year’s Euros, despite starting every match.
The lineup of 11 worst players in the group stage.
The most famous person in the worst group stage squad is goalkeeper Manuel Neuer of the German team. Another character, once awaited by the Italian team, midfielder Frattesi, appearing in this squad is quite reasonable.
The player playing for the Inter Milan club had a lot of expectations at this year’s tournament, but his performance was very lackluster. Frattesi’s lack of performance caused Italy to be completely overwhelmed by Spain in the group stage.
Hungary had the most players in the worst squad: two, including centre-back Attila Fiola and left-back Milos Kerkez.
