#SOTW – He is doing his bit to help his team get back on track

They made their own luck. These are the players that were instrumental in their team’s performance over the past weekend.

As it is with every other week, picking the outright brightest star is never easy, and sometimes blinding. There were many bright spots over the weekend, but these are the men that were able to make our list.

The final shortlist for #SOTW included…

Kevin Prince Boateng (Eintracht Frankfurt vs Borussia Monchengladbach) German Bundesliga
Kingsley Coman (Bayern Munich vs Hoffenheim) German Bundesliga
Jeremy Toljan (Borussia Dortmund vs Freiburg) German Bundesliga
Nils Petersen (Borussia Dortmund vs Freiburg) German Bundesliga
Nolan Roux (Metz vs Nice) French Ligue 1
Edinson Cavani (Paris Saint-Germain vs Montpellier) French Ligue 1
Ivi López (Deportivo La Coruna vs Levante) Spanish La Liga
Moise Kean (Fiorentina vs Hellas Verona) Italian Serie A
Dries Mertens (Napoli vs Bologna) Italian Serie A
Leon Bailey (Eintracht Frankfurt vs Mainz 05) German Bundesliga
Lionel Messi (FC Barcelona vs Alaves) Spanish La Liga

But the SOTW will have to go to
Cristiano Ronaldo (Valencia vs Real Madrid) Spanish La Liga

For scoring a brace to lead Real Madrid to a comfortable victory in a very important fixture.
