Still only 18, Renato Sanches enjoyed the finest night of his fledgling career as he started for Portugal for the first time in Euro 2016 in their quarter-final win over Poland.

The teenage sensation who completed a big money move to Bayern Munich this summer, scored with a stunning strike from outside the box to draw his side level albeit with the help of a slight deflection.

He brought plenty of energy and drive to the midfield throughout the 120 minutes of action and also dispatched his penalty emphatically as Portugal won the shootout 5-3 following a 1-1 score at the end of extra-time.
