Acheampong was named alongside Aubamayang and Reus, who scored in Borussia Dortmund’s 3-0 win over Tottenham, in an attacking tridente.

Ghana winger Frank Acheampong has been picked for the Europa League team of the week after his brilliant performance in the 3-1 defeat in Ukraine on Thursday.

The 22-year-old starred for Anderlecht in mid-week, scoring a consolation goal for the Belgian club at the L'viv Arena in Ukraine in the first leg of their round of 16 tie against Shakhtar Donetsk.

In midfield, Mehmet Topal joined Liverpool star Coutinho, Athletic Bilbao’s Raul Garcia and Martin Frydek of Sparta Prague in the midfield for the team of the week.

Manchester United goalkeeper De Gae was picked as goalkeeper despite conceding twice against Liverpool. The Spanish goalkeeper did make several key stops to prevent his side losing by a bigger margin.

The defence was comprised of Liverpool full-back Clyne, Victor Ruiz of Villarreal and Olexandr Kucher of Shakhtar.
