Lionel Messi not included in the Champions League team of the week

If Lionel Messi is not in the team of the week, it's a little bit strange, but it can happen. But not to see him in the team after his sensational performance against Juventus is quite surreal.

But that's what happened. UEFA published the team of the week and somehow the Argentine was not included.

There are, in fact, no Barcelona players in it. Sergio Ramos and Cristiano Ronaldo appear in it from Real Madrid. The explanation is that the results come from UEFA's fantasy football, where players pick their own squads.

The team of the week is: Alisson (Roma); Zappacosta (Chelsea), Stones (Manchester City), Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid), Azpilicueta (Chelsea); Kimminch (Bayern), Pardo (Olympiacos), Fellaini (Manchester United); Cavani (PSG), Kane (Tottenham) and Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid).
