Could Liverpool players face off in Euro 2020 final? Examining playoff bracket

Six players who represent Liverpool at this summer's European Championship have made it to the tournament's last-16 round.

As the competition's playoff bracket has been revealed, let's take a look at what scenarios could see the Reds face each other in the final on July 11.

In each half of the bracket, Liverpool are represented by three players. Thiago (Spain) could face Xherdan Shaqiri in the quarter-final if Switzerland deliver an upset and beat France.

A semi-final showdown between Spain and Portugal is more feasible, which would mean an encounter between Thiago and Diogo Jota.

In the other half of the bracket, Jordan Henderson (England) can only face the Welsh duo of Harry Wilson and Neco Williams in the semi-final. That would be a repeat of the Euro 2016 success for Wales, but it would be difficult to pull off.

So, the likeliest final with the Reds' involvement on both sides would be England vs Spain or Portugal.
