Raphinha named Champions League Player of the Week after Barcelona’s win over PSG

Barcelona forward Raphinha has been named the Champions League Player of the Week after a fun-packed few days in Europe’s elite club competition. Raphinha scored twice in Barcelona’s 3-2 win over Paris Saint-Germain to land the award. He was also named the game’s MVP after the final whistle. Barcelona’s win puts the team in a good position to qualify for the semi-finals next week when PSG head to Montjuic for the return leg. Xavi’s side must play Cadiz in La Liga before the game, while PSG have the weekend off to focus all their attentions on the game against Barca.

Barcelona’s win puts the team in a good position to qualify for the semi-finals next week when PSG head to Montjuic for the return leg.

Xavi’s side must play Cadiz in La Liga before the game, while PSG have the weekend off to focus all their attentions on the game against Barca.
