As I usually do for Euros and World Cups, I have attempted to create a best XI from nations that failed to qualify. Again, I have restricted myself to one player per nation so apologies to Martin Odegaard and Alexander Isak who would have walked into this side otherwise. Also, no Russians or Israelis for obvious reasons.
