QUIZ Can you name these players from a LEGO picture?

Since 1996, England have only missed one tournament. There have been two semi-finals and a final in that time. Just four players have gone to six tournaments. One of them perhaps would have gone to seven, but for an injury in 2002. A further five have been to five; 18 players have been to four tournaments.

42 players have been to just one tournament – intriguingly, the tournament with the most tournament debutants was Euro 2020. Makes sense, since it there were three years since the last competition but it's interesting that it marked a PB. Enough chat, though: 22 minutes on the clock for this quiz131 players to guess. How's your memory?

Handpicked football quizzes we know you'll love

Having successfully navigated the lineage of Three Lions talent, you've earned the right to consider yourself a true expert on the national team. But the global game, courtesy of Kwizly, offers challenges far beyond the borders of Blighty.

We start with the legend who refuses to use the royal 'we' because he is, quite simply, Zlatan. Try your luck at separating the facts from the epic fiction in our quiz: Did Zlatan Ibrahimovic say this or not? It’s a challenge of bombast, self-regard, and knowing a great quote when you hear one.

From there, we turn our focus to the trophy collectors. We have two magnificent tests of continental knowledge, beginning with the ultimate club prize: can you name every club to have won the Champions League? This is a grand roll-call of football aristocracy. Then, for a more exclusive club, name every player to win both the Champions League and Europa League. They are the double-winners who conquered Europe's premier club competitions.

Finally, a deep dive into an era of untouchable dominance: can you name every team Manchester United faced in their treble-winning season? And when you need a mental palate cleanser, the puzzle is here: FourFourTwo's Weekend Crossword 22, featuring clues on Ballon d'Ors, badges and 10/10s.
