Alisson Named Champions League Player of the Week
Alisson Becker claimed the top spot among the best performers in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16, highlighting his crucial role in Liverpool’s win over Paris Saint-Germain.
Coming in second was Rodrygo from Real Madrid, while Harry Kane of Bayern Munich finished in third place. Rounding out the top four was Martin Odegaard, the influential midfielder of Arsenal.
Alisson made nine outstanding saves during the matchup with PSG, matching the record held by Andriy Lunin and helping Liverpool secure an unlikely victory—despite equaling a tournament negative record for shots allowed. His heroics between the posts ensured the Reds walked away with a crucial result, underscoring why he was voted the week’s standout player in Europe’s premier club competition.
