Ronaldo backers in last chance for Matchday 2 captain haul

All eyes are on Cristiano Ronaldo (€12.1m) as Portugal face Germany on the last day of EURO Fantasy Matchday 2.

The talismanic forward is owned by 31% of managers at this stage of the competition, many of whom will have turned to him with their captain’s armband.

After blanks for Romelu Lukaku (€11.1m), Harry Kane (€11.5m) and Kylian Mbappé (€12.0m), the scene could be set for Ronaldo to deliver.

However, Ruben Dias (€6.0m) is the most fashionable Fantasy asset in this encounter, currently sat in 36% of squads.

Despite Ronaldo’s role in penalties, 22% of managers have taken Bruno Fernandes (€10.5m) into Matchday 2, the same number who own mid-priced midfielder Joshua Kimmich (€6.0m).

The Germany international appears to be deployed at right wing-back today, on the opposite flank to Robin Gosens (€5.0m), who is classified as a defender.

13% of those playing UEFA’s game appear to be backing Germany to keep things tight with Manuel Neuer (€6.0m) the joint fifth-most-owned player in this fixture. Antonio Rüdiger (€5.5m) is also owned by the same number of managers.

Portugal XI: Rui Patrício; Guerreiro, Dias, Pepe, Semedo; Carvalho, Danilo; Jota, B Fernandes, B Silva; Ronaldo.

Germany XI: Neuer; Rüdiger, Hummels, Ginter; Gosens, Kroos, Gündogan, Kimmich; Gnabry, Havertz; Gnabry.

    Gnabry looks a lot like Adama Traore coz of his fast pace and body built. Nice lad!

  4. Red Devil Swede
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Mbappe, Kane, Gnabry - not a lot of points from them really

    1. Stranger Mings
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I think goose & havertz enough

    2. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Same for me - have Gosens and Havertz. Not sure who would be third?

    3. ivantys
      • 3 Years

      Gnabry. Muller doesn't do fantasy points.

      Just hope Germany doesn't do a France with Hungary 😉

    If only I had gone Hernandez over Pavard and I’d get Gosens off the bench

    1. JONALDINHO
      • 6 Years

    How awful is Semedo though... he was a major part of the problem in all 4 goals conceded

    1. schlupptheweek
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      He's a liability for Wolves too, can't believe Portugal don't have better cover for Cancelo than Semedo

    Damn. Portugal destroyed.

    Portugal vs France will be a draw to allow Germany, Portugal, France to all qualify?

  17. KGFC

        He was the first player in my team since the game went live.
        Never left.
        I'll keep him in my LL3 team too.

  24. Pukki Blinders
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

  27. mezza

    Gosens goal record for Atalanta is insane for a wingback

  28. grooveymatt65
    • 10 Years

    yesss kimmich!

  29. Ask Yourself
    • 7 Years

    This LLMD3 template shaping up nicely

  30. ivantys
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Too bad Kimmich isn't registered as a defender.

    1. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      First thing I looked up after the assist.

      1. ivantys
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        He was man of the match imo in their last game vs France. France were freaking lucky that game, one stupid deflated OG.
