Hoddle: Man Utd's Welbeck scored best goal of Euros

Tottenham and Chelsea legend Glenn Hoddle says Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck scored the goal of the Euros.

Hoddle wrote in the Mail on Sunday: "Despite the high-quality strikes on show in Poland and Ukraine, I think the goal of the tournament was scored by our own Danny Welbeck against Sweden.

"The way he connected with Theo Walcott's cross with his back to goal was sublime. If a South American had guided the ball into the net through his legs like that, we'd be purring about it. And it was an important goal as well, the winner in an exciting 3-2 victory."
