Real Madrid's Kepler Laveran Lima Ferreira: Starts six Euro 2016 matches for Portugal

Pepe started six matches for Portugal during Euro 2016, tallying three clean sheets, three shots, with one on target, two dribbles, six tackles and one yellow card on four fouls. He improves his international record to 77 caps and three goals. Portugal won Euro 2016 after a triumphant 1-0 extra-time victory in the final over the hosts France.

Analysis:

Pepe had a couple of injury lay-offs, though, he was a big piece of Real Madrid's defense the rest of last season. The 33-year-old center back wasn't much of a fantasy factor, though, as he doesn't go forward too much and finished the season with one goal, one assist, six clean sheets, 33 tackles and five yellow cards in 21 La Liga starts.
