Euro 2020 is officially in the books, with Roberto Mancini's Italy edging Gareth Southgate's England on penalty kicks at Wembley Stadium, making it the latest final defeat for the host country after Brazil's loss to Argentina in the 2021 Copa América Final and France's loss to Portugal in the 2016 Euro Final. Plenty of players have delivered impressive performances for their nations this tournament -- let's take a look at the best eleven of an unforgettable European Championships.

Goalkeeper: Gianluigi Donnarumma

Out of all the positions to choose from, this was the hardest. Lukáš Hrádecký, Danny Ward, and Robin Olsen impressed in the group stages, whilst Tomáš Vaclík, Kasper Schmeichel and Yann Sommer all delivered heroic performances between the sticks to lead their teams into the latter rounds of the tournament. Jordan Pickford shook off an error-prone season at Everton and excelled once again for the Three Lions, whilst Unai Simón bounced back from a calamitous error against Croatia and came up clutch in the penalty shootout vs. Switzerland.
