Shilton: Lloris best goalkeeper at Euros

The Tottenham shot-stopper has been the best goalkeeper of the tournament, according to the England legend who also reserves praise for top scorer Antoine Griezmann

Former England goalkeeper Peter Shilton has singled out Hugo Lloris as the best shot-stopper at Euro 2016 after his heroics helped his side progress to the final, making a string of saves in the semi-final against Germany.

France won 2-0 as Lloris was called on to make some brilliant saves, meaning they will meet Portugal in the final in Paris on Sunday.

And Shilton said the performance - alongside that of Antoine Griezmann who scored the two goals - was a huge part of France's success.
