Players to Watch

Christian Eriksen (Denmark)

The 33-year-old midfielder is going to play an essential role for the Denmark national football team in controlling the midfield and setting up plays for the attacking front. Christian Eriksen has scored a single goal and has provided one assist in six Nations League matches this season. He might stand as one of the problems for the opposition team.

Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal)

The Portuguese talisman yet again received a call-up to be a part of the national football team. Roberto Martinez mentioned that CR7 received a call-up only based on what he is able to provide his team at the moment.
