With the group stages of Euro 2016 coming to an end, we take a look back at the best moments from Group C and D involving some of Europe's biggest names and teams.

Jerome Boateng's Clearance vs Ukraine

Croatia's stunning victory over Spain

Northern Ireland's 2-0 win over Ukraine

Croatia’s win against Spain proves them to be one of the most impressive teams of the tournament so far, beating a Spain side on a 14 game unbeaten run in the Euros stretching back to 2004. Despite not playing, Modric managed to still be of assistance; he apparently gave Srna intel to ensure his Real Madrid teammate Ramos’ penalty was saved.

Northern Ireland's 2-0 win over Ukraine

Whether the opposition’s defence is terrified or not, Northern Ireland have done it; qualifying for the round of 16 and capturing the hearts of everyone at the Euros. One of the highlights of the whole tournament so far has to be their 2-0 win against Ukraine.

Iniesta's assist for Pique vs Czech Republic

Andres Iniesta proved he hasn’t lost it with his fantastic assist leading to Pique’s goal and a narrow victory against the Czech Republic team in their opening match of Euro 2016.

Blaszczykowski's bullet vs Ukraine

Although a draw would have been enough for the unbeaten Polish side to advance, Jakub Blaszczykowski’s goal was an impressive show of class. Unstoppable hit!
