The Heineken Star of the Match award was given to the top performer in every UEFA EURO 2020 game.
An upgrade on the usual Man of the Match award, the bespoke hand-crafted Star of the Match trophies were months in the making and were hand-sanded, painted, polished and finished with the Heineken red star – a unique tribute of a star for a star.
UEFA's Technical Observers decided who would be honoured, with the official trophy handed to the successful candidate after full time in each respective game. Bolded teams (below) are those of the selected player.
