Barcelona megastar Lamine Yamal earned recognition on UEFA's Champions League Team of the Week after Galatasaray's impressive performance in Matchday 2. The inclusion highlights Yamal's pivotal role in Barcelona's 4-1 victory over the Turkish side, as he contributed directly to both goals that solidified the Catalan giants' control of the match.
The selection by UEFA's panel of technical observers also recognizes Harry Kane of Bayern Munich, who continued his remarkable European scoring streak with a goal in Bayern's 3-3 draw against Viking. Kane's nine consecutive Champions League goal appearances this season add to his influence on the team's success. However, the standout individual award went to Liverpool new signing Bradley Barcola, named MVP for an extraordinary performance against LASK.
His two assists played a crucial role in Liverpool's 6-3 win, securing his position among the week's elite performers. Other notable names in the Team of the Week include Vitinha from PSG and Nicolo Tresoldi from Club Brugge, who both demonstrated significant impact in their respective matches.
