Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo took home the Euro 2020 Golden Boot, and Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma was named player of the tournament.

BBC Sport looks at eight breakout players from the tournament:
Alexander Isak (Sweden)Striker Isak scored 17 times for Real Sociedad last season, and though he didn’t net at the Euros, his link-up play and ball control had BBC pundits gushing.
The 21-year-old has been linked with a £59m move to Chelseaexternal-link or Arsenal,external-link and there is said to be interest from Real Madrid, though he recently signed a contract extension with Sociedad.
Renato Sanches (Portugal)Portugal may well have exited at the last-16 stage, but Sanches’ reputation continued to grow, with some solid showings in midfield.
The 23-year-old, who won Ligue 1 with Lille last season, once had a loan spell at Swansea and has been linked with a return to the Premier League as a £27m replacement for Georginio Wijnaldum at Liverpool.external-link

Manuel Locatelli (Italy)Midfielder Locatelli started the tournament in place of Marco Verratti, who was injured at the time, and impressed by scoring against Turkey and Switzerland.
