Europa League's Best 11 Revealed... 'Winning Team' Tottenham Has Most Four, Excluding Son Heung-min
Blog Article
The UEFA Europa League (UEL) best 11 players for the 2024-25 season have been revealed. With only four Tottenham players on the list, Son Heung-min has been excluded.
UEFA announced the "UEL Best 11" on its official website on Sunday (Korea time). The list included players from clubs that advanced to the top of the competition, with Tottenham having the most players at four. The list was selected by the UEFA Technical Committee.
UEFA chose the 4-3-3 format. Guglielmo Vicario, Tottenham's goalkeeper, was chosen. Frederick Andre Bjorkan (Bodd/Glimt), Robin Koch (FC Frankfurt), Christian Romero and Pedro Porro (Tottenham) were included in the list of goalkeepers.
Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United) and Patric Berg (Boda/Glimt) were selected in the midfield. All three players showed outstanding performances, but unfortunately they turned their feet after losing to Tottenham. Niko Williams (Atlantic Clube) and Rayan Cherki (Olank Lyon) stood side by side with Dominic Solanke, Tottenham's main catcher.
Tottenham, which won the championship, doubled its joy as key players were selected as the UEL Best 11. Unlike the league, the team won the competition with solid defense, so defensive resources such as Romero, the vice-captain, Porro, and Vicario were selected on the list. Solanke, who struggled in the front line, proved his club record value by scoring five goals and four assists in 13 games.
Unfortunately, Son, who made his presence known at the championship, was not included in the list. Son had three goals and one assist in nine matches of the UEL. Notably, he scored multiple goals in the showdown between Hoffenheim and the League Phase, which gave him three valuable points. Son, who advanced to the finals despite his poor physical condition, won his first career trophy.
Meanwhile, UEFA named Romero the Most Valuable Player of the competition. Romero had three clean sheets and one assist in seven matches. He contributed to the championship by not conceding multiple goals in a single match. Earlier, mainly strikers Eden Hazard (retired), Romelu Lukaku (Napoli), and Gerard Moreno (Villar Real) were chosen, and Romero was honored even as a center back. 온라인바카라
The Young Player of the Year award went to Czurki, the Olympique Lyonnais ace. Including Fernandez, who scored seven goals, Kasper Hjorg (Bodeaux/Glimt) and Ayub Elkabi (Olympiacos) tied for top scorer.
