Cristiano Ronaldo, Robbie Brady and Arnor Ingvi Traustason were the headline-makers and while they will get plenty of plaudits there are others who will get nothing but criticism. Some will get the chance to put it right in France and the rest will ponder their below-par performances on a beach.

Here, Omnisport presents the worst XI of the group stage. We've gone for a 4-3-3 system and used Opta stats to back up our selections.

Goalkeeper: Salvatore Sirigu (Italy)
