### Toni Kroos Shines Again
Another game, another masterclass from Toni Kroos. As expected, Kroos was pivotal, completing 124 passes, the second most by a midfielder in a European Championship match. The record is held by Xavi, with 127 passes for Spain against the Republic of Ireland at Euro 2012.
And Kroos achieved this feat in his signature 'old' boots, underscoring his enduring class and consistency.
