England 2021
As in the Final. In : Saka (70'), Henderson (74', out at the 120'), Grealish (94'), Rashford and Sancho (120'). Prior to the final, in case of a four-men defense, in a 4-2-3-1, Saka started on the right (Trippier did not play). Most used substitute (but also often subbed out after he was subbed in) : Grealish. Foden did not impose himself and was not used in the final. Rashford and most of all Sancho had no playing-time before the penalty shootout won by Italy where both failed to score before that Saka missed, him too.
Semi-finalist A : Spain.

As it was over the k-o stages. Moreno was even used on the right wing in the groups. Sarabia too (his usual position). Oyarzabal was the starting CF in the semi-finals although he's usually used as a winger. Morata replaced him and scored in these semi-finals.
Semi-finalist B : Denmark.

The young Damsgaard numerically replaced the playmaker and national star-player Eriksen who collapsed in the very first game of the group stage against Finland, in Copenhagen. Damsgaard played upfront and did great. At last, Yussuf Poulsen (forward) scored 2 goals, during the group stage phase : as a winger (Belgium, 1-2 loss) then as a centre-forward (Russia, 4-1 win) but he did not have any remarkable contribution during the k-o stages.
