Champions League Team of the Week: UEFA Names Standout Players

UEFA has officially revealed its Champions League Team of the Week after the conclusion of the Round of 16 first-leg fixtures. The list, announced on Thursday via UEFA’s official website, features key players who delivered standout performances in their respective matches.

Among those recognized are Liverpool’s Alisson Becker, Arsenal’s Jurriën Timber, and Inter Milan’s Benjamin Pavard, all of whom played crucial roles in their clubs' performances.

UEFA’s Champions League Team of the Week:

    • Alisson Becker (Liverpool)

Opinion: Who Deserved a Spot?

While UEFA’s selection highlights some of the best individual performances, the absence of certain players might raise a few eyebrows. Did Manchester City’s stars deserve a place? What about PSG’s key attackers?

With the second-leg fixtures coming up next week, these players will aim to maintain their form, while others will look to prove UEFA wrong by delivering game-changing performances.

What do you think? Did UEFA get it right, or were there some snubs?
