With the Club fixtures taking a break and International friendlies and UEFA Nations League taking place in the few days in between players went on to serve their country. Some of the players had an excellent break as they look to continue their form in the clubs they play for.

However, some players' form didn't achieve their team any results, but that didn't stop them from not performing for the national team. Let's take a look at a few players who were sensational and extraordinary for their team in this International break that took place.


#5 Luis Suarez

With the Uruguayan playing only one match in the international break against Mexico, Luis Suarez looked in an excellent form after he scored the free kick. But his quality match didn't end there. The FC Barcelona forward also assisted his teammate to secure the victory, And the assist was a bit special! Luis Suarez delivered a Rabona assist, and his team managed to convert it into a goal and claim the victory against Mexico. El Pistolero Luis Suarez had one excellent international break.

#4. Marcus Rashford.

After a dramatic exit to Croatia in the FIFA world cup semi-final, England looked to focus on things ahead, But things got worsened rather than being mended. England had come on a 3-match winless streak.

But one thing remained consistent, and it was the performance of Marcus Rashford. The 20-year-old scored in both the games for England consecutively even though it had come in a losing cause. But the performance has improved, and he is hinting that United could play a two-person striking formation ahead that would include him in the plans as well.

#3. Saul Niguez

The underrated player who always goes unnoticed is Saul. He plays for Atletico Madrid, and this international break he has made sure people has his name on their lips. Saul scored consecutively in the two games he played against England and Croatia respectively. Both his goals came in a winning cause, and it could be the high time people start noticing the young gun who would be a superstar shortly with guidance from one of the most excellent coaches - Diego Simeone. The man has done absolute justice to the Number 8 previously worn by Andres Iniesta.

#2. Romelu Lukaku

The Belgian devil couldn't save Manchester United from the crisis in the premier league, but he showed up when the countrymen needed him in the international friendlies. Lukaku has scored in both the games consecutively.

He has been in a great form, and this would be the turning point for Manchester United with both the central strikers in good shape they could turn the premier league table upside down. Lukaku is consistent with his performance when he wears the red jersey for his country. However, the red jersey in Manchester obliterates his good-running form usually.

#1. Marco Asensio

He doesn't need any explanation for his form, does he? His performance vs. Croatia talks it all. 2 rocket long-range goals vs. Croatia and under 3 minutes. And just when you thought he was done massacring, he delivered four assists to his team, and the match concluded 6-0 in favor of Spain, All that in only one game.

The 22-year old Asensio looked great, and this would help Real Madrid build a team around in-form players like Marco Asensio and look for a plus point to win the UCL as well as La Liga.

Some honorable names:- Rodrigo, Richarlison, Eden Hazard.
