When things settled, Rasmus Hojlund was the top performer of the international break. The striker scored for Denmark in the Euro qualifiers. However, Cristiano Ronaldo, who currently represents Portugal in the same tournament, has been in his best form so far. He has scored 4 goals just like Romelu Lukaku, Scott McTominay and Lionel Messi.
However, Messi scored a hat-trick for Argentina in a friendly last night to become the third player to reach 100 goals. I am an international soccer player. The World Cup champion scored four times for his side during the international break to bring his total to 102 for Argentina. Furthermore, Romelu Lukaku, whose career has stalled since returning to Inter Milan on loan, has managed to regain form during the international break by scoring four goals for Belgium in Euro qualifying. . Hopefully he will pick up where he left off when Serie A resumes this weekend.
One of the players that impressed the most was Scott McTominay as he was the only midfielder in the top five on the list. The Scotsman, who collapsed at Old Trafford, scored a staggering four goals for Scotland 9m in the Euro competition. With Casemiro suspended, Erik Ten Hag may consider starting him against Newcastle United on Sunday.

Liverpool transfer information:
The Reds are linked with the signing of a French defender, who could come in on a free form, as the story of Mason Mount takes a new turn.
With the international break finally over, all eyes and attention will now be on club football, especially Liverpool's return.
Liverpool have not played since losing 1-0 to Real Madrid in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 on March 15, but they will be back on Saturday for the big game on April 1. with Man City at Etihad Stadium.
Meanwhile, rumors continued to swirl. The transfer market, like Wall Street, never seems to sleep. Players, and even managers, continue to be linked with movements to and from their respective clubs. Liverpool, in that sense, are exactly the same.
Some connections around Liverpool are reliable, some are completely unbelievable, and then everything in between:
a variety of rumors to dissect and analyze.
For Liverpool, midfield is clearly the main area of ??the team that Jürgen Klopp knows will have to change this summer. The famous Jude Bellingham is now at the top of the list of transfer targets, but he is not the only midfielder on the list. Liverpool may have received some good news regarding one of their 'non-Bellingham' targets, with a European rival seemingly uninterested in agreeing a deal.
Liverpool have also been linked with the signing of a Bundesliga defender, in a deal that could theoretically be completed immediately.
Here's Liverpool.com's verdict on the transfer rumors swirling around the Red Devils today.
Mason Mountain (Chelsea)
Mount has been on Liverpool's radar for some time and the Red Devils could capitalize on the need to sell Chelsea this summer to comply with Financial Fair Play (Times).
And the path to signing him could be a little easier with the news that Bayern Munich have no immediate interest in signing Mount. This is according to German journalist Christian Falk.
"Chelsea's Mason Mount is not an issue in the negotiations between Thomas Tuchel and FC Bayern," Falk wrote.
"The new coach wants to have an overview of the previous team. Especially the midfield is more than enough. In order to have the next transfers, the players will have to be sold first.
This is despite a Times report yesterday that Tuchel is interested in reuniting with Mount this summer. While Falk wouldn't rule out a move to Bayern Munich entirely, it seems Germany's position is that Liverpool have no immediate transfer rivals.
Liverpool.com says:
A smoother path for a player of Mount's quality is always a good thing, especially given the hurdles Liverpool will have to overcome when they sign Jude Bellingham this summer. There is a real possibility that the club could sign Mount on a discount, which would be a great deal - despite the competition, even if Bayern Munich remain on the sidelines.
Evan Ndicka (Eintracht Frankfurt)
According to the Daily Mirror, Liverpool are interested in signing the Eintracht Frankfurt defender and could make a move for the 23-year-old.
The report says that Ndicka, who will be on a free transfer this summer, 'tickled all the boxes' about what Jürgen Klopp is looking for in a centre-back. The Frenchman has the potential to replace Joël Matip, either immediately or in the long term. Ndicka has made 24 appearances in the Bundesliga this season .
