English-born Ghanaian youngster Kobbie Mainoo has earned a well-deserved spot in Sofascore's Euro 2024 Team of the Week.

 

Mainoo's standout performance in the semifinals has not only impressed football enthusiasts but also cemented his status as one of the tournament's top performers.

 

On Wednesday night, Mainoo shone for the Three Lions as England defeated the Netherlands 2-1 in the 2024 European Championship. Starting in the second semi-final of the tournament in Germany, he was particularly outstanding in the first half, where he dictated the play for most of the contest.

 

His impressive display was pivotal in helping England come from behind to overcome the Dutch. The Netherlands initially took the lead in the 7th minute with a stunning goal from Xavi Simons. England equalized in the 18th minute when Harry Kane converted a penalty.

 

The winning goal came in the 90th minute through a strike from substitute Ollie Watkins, securing a 2-1 victory for England and a spot in the finals against Spain.

 

Kobbie Mainoo now hopes to win his first international trophy with England by helping the team triumph over Spain in the final on Sunday, July 14.
