Goalkeeper

Kevin Trapp (Paris FC) 9.1

Trapp was imperious between the sticks for Paris FC over the weekend as the Blues claimed a valuable away point against Toulouse in Ligue 1.

Despite conceding late on, the German shot-stopper made nine saves throughout the contest, preventing a total of 1.96 xG.

Defence

Mariano Troilo (Parma) 8.8

Parma secured a third successive Serie A win for the first time since 2014 after they upset the odds to beat AC Milan 1-0 at San Siro, ending the Rossoneri’s 24-match unbeaten league run in the process.

Troilo was the match-winner for the visitors, as the Argentine towered above his marker at the back post to head home from Emanuele Valeri’s corner with 10 minutes remaining.

Hauke Wahl (St. Pauli) 9

Wahl played a starring role in St. Pauli’s 2-1 victory against Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga, with the centre-back heading home the opener shortly before the hour mark.

In addition to his goal, the 31-year-old was rock-solid at the back for Alexander Blessin’s side, making 13 clearances and winning all four of his aerial duels.

Yuri Berchiche (Athletic Club) 8.9

Athletic Club made it three wins on the bounce in LaLiga with a hard-fought 2-1 success over relegation-threatened Elche on Friday.

Experienced left-back Berchiche was in top form for the Lions, providing a brilliant low cross for Gorka Guruzeta’s opener, while also completing 89% of his passes in the final third.

Midfield

Kingsley Coman (Al Nassr) 9.4

Al Nassr moved to the top of the Saudi Pro League on Saturday evening after Jorge Jesus’ side secured a convincing 4-0 home win over Al Hazem.

Coman was crucial to their triumph, with the Frenchman scoring his ninth of the season via a clinical finish in the box, while he also registered a pair of assists in a superb all-round showing.

Nahitan Nandez (Al Qadsiah) 9.3

Nandez was influential at both ends of the pitch for Al Qadsiah in their emphatic 4-0 win against Al Ettifaq, as Brendan Rodgers’ men closed to within three points of the summit.

The Uruguayan scored and assisted in a dominant first-half display, while he also made five key tackles and won 10 ground duels.

Pape Gueye (Villarreal) 9.2

Villarreal consolidated third place in LaLiga with a comeback 2-1 victory over Valencia, as Gueye tucked home the decisive goal from the penalty spot.

Not only did the Senegalese midfielder contribute in the final third, but he also won all four of his ground duels and completed 87% of his passes during the contest. 

Yannick Carrasco (Al Shabab) 9.5

Carrasco continued his incredible run of form on Monday evening, with the Belgian winger scoring a hat-trick in Al Shabab’s 3-1 triumph over Al Riyadh.

Having broken the deadlock with a brilliant low finish inside seven minutes, Carrasco added two more goals to his tally to lift Al Shabab 10 points clear of the relegation zone.

Attack

Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nassr) 9.1

The second Al Nassr player to make our team is Ronaldo, with the legendary Portuguese forward netting a well-taken brace in his side's emphatic win against Al Hazem.

The 41-year-old has now scored 21 goals this season across all competitions, and certainly looks up for the fight as he targets a maiden league title in Saudi Arabia.

Goncalo Ramos (Paris Saint-Germain) 9.1

PSG returned to the Ligue 1 summit over the weekend as Luis Enrique’s men cruised to a comfortable 3-0 triumph over rock-bottom Metz.

Ramos was handed a rare start for the Parisians, and the striker took his opportunity with both hands, scoring and assisting in an eye-catching display.

Iago Aspas (Celta Vigo) 10

Introduced in the 69th minute with the scores level, Aspas delivered a match-winning cameo for top-six hopefuls Celta, as the Spaniard's late brace saw off the challenge of Mallorca.

The 38-year-old held his nerve to convert from the spot in the 85th minute, before adding gloss to the scoreline with a clinical strike deep into stoppage time.
