Euro 2012: Best Team of the Tournament XI

RAM - Andres Iniesta (Spain)

The man who just missed out on my vote for player of the tournament although I'm sure he's more than happy with getting UEFA's award. In the final he was magnificent as per usual. Big games are his bread and butter. He never gets fazed by the occasion or overawed by the meaning of the moment. This is truly a golden generation for Spain and I don't think that anyone shines brighter than Spain's number six. In a country that is bound by it's regional squabbles he is the only man who is nationally adored partly because of the man he is and partly because of the goal he scored one summer's night in Johannesburg. He is absolute quality and for me the only thing missing from the final was an Iniesta goal.
