Wins for Mario Mandzukic’s Croatia and Sami Khedira’s Germany on Sunday maintained a 100 per cent success rate for Bianconeri currently involved in Euro 2016 following earlier triumphs in the competition for France (Paul Pogba and Patrice Evra) and Switzerland (Stephan Lichtsteiner).

Mandzukic played 90 minutes of Croatia’s 1-0 victory against Turkey, Luka Modric’s wonder strike ultimately proving the difference between the two sides.

Meanwhile, Khedira featured until the final whistle for Die Mannschaft, who overcame Ukraine 2-0 courtesy of goals by Shkodran Mustafi and Bastian Schweinsteiger.

Today will see seven more Bianconeri involved in Euro 2016 action, with Alvaro Morata’s Spain kicking off against Czech Republic (15.00 CEST kick-off) and Italy (for whom Gianluigi Buffon, Giorgio Chiellini, Andrea Barzagli, Leonardo Bonucci, Stefano Sturaro and Simone Zaza have all been called up) locking horns with Belgium this evening (21.00 kick-off).
