SOTW – Scoring a winner in a local derby and keeping your team in the title race, while playing out of position

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…

Robin Quaison (Hertha Berlin vs Mainz 05) – German Bundesliga
Edinson Cavani (Paris Saint-Germain vs Strasbourg) – French Ligue 1
Marco Reus (Borussia Monchengladbach vs Borussia Dortmund) – German Bundesliga
Francis Coquelin (Malaga vs Valencia) – Spanish La Liga
Kevin Gameiro (Atletico Madrid vs Athletic Club) – Spanish La Liga
Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid vs Athletic Club) – Spanish La Liga
Cheick Diabaté (Benevento – Crotone) – Italian Serie A
Florian Thauvin (Marseille vs Bordeaux) – French Ligue 1
Marco Asensio (Real Betis vs Real Madrid) – Spanish La Liga

But the SOTW will have to go to
Alex Sandro (Torino vs Juventus) – Italian Serie A

For scoring the winning goal in the Turin derby to help Juventus stay on the heels of Napoli
