The first round of the UEFA Europa League group fixtures concluded on Thursday –\u00a0<\/strong>and the quest for the Team of the Week based on players’ performances, here is it according to the highest-scored statistics.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Goalkeeper<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alex Remiro (Sociedad)<\/p>\n

Very confident in the post against Manchester United – guided it against Brais Mendez’s lone goal with 3 saves, the 27-year-old emerged as the most outstanding goalkeeper this week.<\/p>\n

Defenders<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Gustavo Henrique (Fenerbahce)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Though involved less in defence, the Brazilian attacking threat played a huge role in their triumph win against Dynamo Kyiv – a goal and that of Michy Batshuayi’s were enough to record their first win in the campaign.<\/p>\n

Christian Burgess (Saint-Gilloise)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Edged Union Berlin by a goal to nil, Burgess was arguably the best defender this week – made the most clearances (10), ground duels (5), and aerial duels of 7.<\/p>\n

Erik Sviatchenko (Midtjylland)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Excellent clearance off the line to prevent further goals, the captain of the side was highly praised for such awesome displays at the back-line.<\/p>\n

Midfielders<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kamaldeen Sulemana (Rennais)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Player of the match against AEK Larnaca, the Ghanaian winger’s performance says it all – 2 assists and 4 key passes were such brilliant stats from the 20-year-old, enough to earn him a feature in the team of the week.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Matias Vecino<\/strong> and Luis Alberto (Lazio)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Great delivery in midfield, the duo were simply inseparable and visionary.<\/p>\n

Their control and eye for goals got the job done easily at the expense of Feyenoord -3 goals and 2 assists between them were just magical.<\/p>\n

Ludovic Blas (Nantes)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Covered the most distance along with two crucial assists to help his side defeat Olympiakos from home, the Frenchman’s performance was a memorial that earn him the man of the match honour.<\/p>\n

Forwards<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Marquinhos (Arsenal)<\/strong><\/p>\n

His first debut for the “Gunners” since arriving two months ago, the 19-year-old winger indeed is a huge prospect.<\/p>\n

Inspired his side from away with a goal and an assist as it did help cruise over FC Zurich.<\/p>\n

Tokmac Nguen (Ferencvarosi)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nguen may not be well known but after his encounter with Trabzonspor – his craft is now recognised, 3 goals contribution [a brace and an assist] and the best player, he earned a spot in this week’s team.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Willian Jose (Betis)<\/strong><\/p>\n

With two shots on target -Jose made sure it accounted for against Finnis-based side HJK from away as they won on a 2-0 scoreline.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Player of the week: Tokmac Nguen<\/p>\n
