Brazilian great Roberto Carlos was impressed by Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw in England's defeat of Ukraine.

Shaw produced two assists for the 4-0 Euro 2020 quarterfinal rout.

He posted a photo of him and his team-mates celebrating at the Stadio Olimpico with the caption: "What a night! All eyes on the semis."

In response Carlos posted several clapping emojis, showing even the greatest full-backs of all time are in awe of Shaw's performances.

Carlos, 48, reached the World Cup final on two occasions, lifting the trophy in 2002.
