Euro Fantasy Tips: Final, France vs Portugal

Midfield

I already have Dmitri Payet and Paul Pogba in my starting XI. These two players have provided those incisive balls for Girou and Griezmann to feed off and are the main reason why France has been able to score a lot of goals. You just have to stick with them because if France run away with the game tonight, it’s going to be these two individuals who’ll be making the most impact.

Renato Sanches too remains put as he has been the major driving force in midfield for Portugal. His wonder strike in the quarter finals ensured that Portugal remained in the game, thus showing the world that despite his tender age, he is ready for the big stage.

Joao Mario is the first midfielder that I get in. His exploits on the right wing have been more than decent for Portugal and though he hasn’t really set the Euros on fire, his bit and pieces contribution has ensured that Portugal have remained competitive in this tournament. He is the best attacking midfielder on offer and thus I get him in!

Sissoko should find his place in the starting XI one more time as Matuidi looks all set to play as a defensive midfielder instead of Kante. Pogba will also play a little deeper and Sissoko should be deployed in a more attacking role.
