Official: Barcelona superstar trio named in Champions League Team of the Week | OneFootball

On Wednesday night, FC Barcelona played out a hard-fought 3-3 draw in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semi-final contest against Inter Milan at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys.

It was a scintillating encounter between two teams with completely different footballing ideologies, with several players shining bright under the lights.

Lamine Yamal was the star of the show for Barcelona while Denzel Dumfries stood up for the visitors, scoring two of their three goals and causing a lot of problems down the flank.

The third Blaugrana star to make the Team of the Week is Raphinha, who had a hand in two of the team’s three goals on the night, including a stunning long-range effort that forced an own-goal from Yann Sommer for the 3-3.

Meanwhile, Dumfries also makes it to the Champions League Team of the Week, along with two more Inter Milan players in Francesco Acerbi and Nicolo Barella.

Former Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele, who is excelling at PSG, this season features in the Team of the Week after helping the Parisians beat Arsenal on Tuesday. Vitinha, Marquinhos, and Gianluigi Donnarumma also feature.

The final spot in the Champions League Team of the Week goes to Arsenal youngster Myles Lewis-Skelly.
