Leading figures at Spanish football giants Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid have both been named as part of the latest UEFA Champions League Team of the Week.
This of course comes fresh off victories for both sides on the continent this week.
When it comes to the former, Real Madrid battled their way beyond Atalanta on Tuesday night, courtesy of goals on the part of all of Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Jr. and Jude Bellingham.
It is one of Los Blancos’ star performers at the other end, though, who has been voted into the TOTW, in the form of Antonio Rüdiger.
Turning attentions towards Atlético Madrid, Diego Simeone’s troops secured an altogether more comfortable victory than their capital rivals on Wednesday, putting Slovan Bratislava to the sword by three goals to one.
Antoine Griezmann proved himself the star of the show on the evening, notching a brace for the 2nd game in succession.
And as much has proven enough to earn for the Frenchman a place in the Team of the Week, too, joining the likes of Andy Robertson, Youri Tielemans and Bukayo Saka in a star-studded XI:
