That is exactly what teenage fan Graham Love has done before showing off his work in a video posted on YouTube just days before the start of Euro 2012.

The 18-year-old used characters made from the popular children's building blocks to act out moments including Paul Gascoigne's famous goal against Scotland at Euro 96 and Stuart Pearce's penalty against Spain and subsequent celebration from the same tournament.

Other matches and incidents shown in the video range from David Trezeguet's golden goal for France against Italy that won Euro 2000 to Thomas Brolin's stunning effort for Sweden versus England in 1992.
