Tottenham star Eriksen was simply breathtaking, scoring a hat-trick in Denmark’s 5-1 destruction of the Republic of Ireland.

That result assured the Danes’ place at the World Cup, and cemented Eriksen’s reputation as one of the finest playmakers around.

Lukaku was also in top form for his country in a friendly double-header.

David Silva and Heung-Min Son also feature in the Team of the Week thanks to their displays, as does Liverpool’s Sadio Mane, who helped Senegal seal a place at the World Cup.
