Maignan, Davis, Diaz and Gyekeres are in the Champions League team of the week

Also on the list are the conqueror of Paris Molina, the hero of Glasgow Kühn and the gravedigger of Feyenoord Konate

UEFA determined the symbolic team of the week (4th round) Champions League 2024/25.

The goalkeeping position went to Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan, whose nine saves at the Santiago Bernabeu helped the Rossoneri to a 3-1 victory over the formidable Real Madrid.

The four defenders include Nahuel Molina from Atlético, who helped his team secure an away victory over PSG (2:1), as well as Alphonso Davies from Bayern, who put the finishing touches on Anatoly Trubin’s Benfica at home (1:0).

The attacking four included the main hero of the tour – Sporting forward Victor Diekeres, the author of a hat-trick against Manchester City (4:1). With him in company are a trio of other contenders for the title of player of the week: wingers Luis Diaz (Liverpool) and Nicolas Kühn (Celtic), as well as Salzburg striker Karim Konate, who was a few centimeters short of a hat-trick in the away match against Feyenoord (3: 1).

Team of the 4th round of the Champions League: Mike Maignan (Milan) – Nahuel Molina (Atlético), Isak Hien (Atalanta), Thilo Kehrer (Monaco), Alphonso Davies (Bayern) – Pierre Les-Melou (Brest), Malik Tillman (PSV) – Nicolas Kühn (Celtic), Karim Konate (Salzburg), Victor Diekeres (Sporting), Luis Diaz (Liverpool).

Let us remind you that Shakhtar got its first victory in the tournament in the 4th round – in a formal home match with Young Boys (2:1). Midfielder Georgy Sudakov, the author of the assist and the winning goal, was recognized as the MVP of the meeting. This victory was an anniversary for the Miners – the 40th in the main draw of the Champions League.

The matches of the next, 5th round will be held on November 26-27. Shakhtar, which is in 28th place with four points, will play away against PSV.
