The Slovakia star scored a sensational goal and delivered an equally sumptous assist as he stole the show in Slovakia's Group B victory over Russia
There were little flashes of brilliance from him on Saturday in Bordeaux, but Marek Hamsik showed Euro 2016 what he is all about on Wednesday with the greatest individual performance of the tournament so far to lead Slovakia to a 2-1 Group B win over Russia in Lille.
Against Wales on matchday one he had opened up looking ready to rock the continent, dancing past a number of defenders before rounding goalkeeper Danny Ward only to see his shot wonderfully cleared by the rapidly retreating Ben Davies.
