After months of anticipation, Euro 2024 will reach its climax this week with the semi final stage beginning this evening as Spain face France in Munich.
With tournament hosts Germany already home, Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal’s dumped out and reigning champions Italy sent packing at the last 16 stage, the trophy is up for grabs and the remaining four nations will be looking to their star names to shoot them to the glory.
Former Celtic stars Virgil van Dijk and Jeremie Frimpong are two such players that the Netherlands will be hoping can produce the goods against England in the second semi final on Wednesday. However, they aren’t the only ex-Old Firm favourites that have taken part in a European Championship semi final before. Could you name them all?
Here are 14 former Rangers and Celtic players that have played in a Euros semi final for their nation - with are some real surprises on both sides of the divide.
5. Joachim Bjorklund - Euro 1992
Four years before he moved to Rangers, Bjorklund formed an impressive partnership with Patrik Andersson as Sweden made it all the way to semis at Euro 1992 in Denmark. They were knocked out by the hosts though, who defeated Bjorklund's Swedish side before going on to win the tournament with a shock victory over Germany. | Getty Images
6. Pierre van Hooijdonk - Euro 2004
While he was long gone from Celtic Park by this point, the ex-Hoops man came off the bench in the Netherlands' 2-1 semi-final loss to Portugal, replacing Arjen Robben in the 81st minute of the clash. | AFP via Getty Images
7. Frank De Boer - Euro 1992/2000
Another player to have featured in two European Championship semi finals is this ex-Rangers ace. Heartbreakingly for De Boer, he lost both of his last four clashes on penalties. Losing in 1992 to eventual champions Denmark, before he himself missed a crucial spot kick eight years later in a shoot out defeat to Italy. | AFP via Getty Images
8. Ronald De Boer - Euro 2000
Of course, his twin brother Ronald also formed part of the Dutch squad that made the semi final. The ex-Rangers man featured in the Netherlands Euro 1996 squad too, but they would only make it as far as the last eight that year, losing out to France. | Getty Images
