After a frantic group stage, Euro 2016 paused for breath on Thursday, with no matches played.
However, that did not stop players and their teams from going online and keeping fans engaged with a variety of pictures, videos and statistics.
Some sides were resting, others were preparing for the next round, and a few were offering teasing comments ahead of those forthcoming fixtures.
