    The Euro 2016 is now at its semi-final stage, four teams having confirmed their places as the tournament approaches its conclusion.

    Previously, YOU the fans voted Xherdan Shaqiri’s bicycle-kick the goal of the round of 16 with a whopping 64% of the votes.

    And here, we look at five of the best goals to be scored in the quarter-finals and ask YOU to vote for your favourite at the bottom of the page.

    RADJA NAINGGOLAN (BELGIUM vs Wales)

    Belgium were eliminated from the tournament by an inspired Welsh side in a 3-1 defeat but early signs in the game pointed to a win for Marc Wilmots team. When Radja Nainggolan unleashed a pile-driver from distance, it seemed like it would be Belgium’s night but Wales had a thing or two to say about that.

    HAL ROBSON-KANU (WALES vs Belgium)

    With the game tied at 1-1, Hal Robson-Kanu produced a fitting tribute to the late, great Johan Cruyff. The Welsh forward latched onto a cross from Aaron Ramsey and despite being sandwiched by Marouane Fellaini and Thomas Meunier, executed a sublime Cruyff-turn before slotting his effort past Thibaut Courtois with perfection.

    ANTOINE GRIEZMANN (FRANCE vs Iceland)

    Iceland’s dream run came to a brutal end at the hands of the host nation and Antoine Griezmann’s brilliant chipped effort to make it 4-0 to France just before half-time put the tie well beyond the inspirational minnows. The Atletico de Madrid forward ran onto a subtle Olivier Giroud flick before calmly lobbing the keeper.

    RENATO SANCHES (PORTUGAL vs Poland)

    Poland took the lead in the third minute when Robert Lewandowski broke his Euro 2016 duck but Renato Sanches popped up with the equaliser in the 33rd minute. He shifted Nani’s lay-off onto his left foot before drilling it inside the near post, albeit with a little help from a slight deflection.

    DIMITRI PAYET (FRANCE vs Iceland)

    The West Ham United player has been central to France’s progress at Euro 2016 and it’s no surprise that his was one of the five goals to eliminate Iceland. Dimitri Payet received the ball on the edge of the box and there was no stopping his low drive into the bottom corner.
