Often branded a disruptive influence in the dressing room, Patrice Evra's performances so far in Euro 2016 have been nothing short of impeccable.

The veteran full-back has been a key part of the France team as the hosts have advanced to the final, winning five out of their six games so far.

And as Sunday's final against Portugal looms, Evra is looking back in time for inspiration as he prepares for combat.

"Working on the shooting of the last Game of Thrones ahahahahahah I love this game," the Juventus man wrote on Instagram to accompany a picture of him decked out in a full suit of armour.
