In two weeks, Europe’s best clubs have faced each other in their quest to book their place in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League.

Some African players found their way to the starting XI of their clubs and played their parts in their team’s victories and losses.

The likes of Riyad Mahrez, Hakimi Achraf, Bertrand Traoré, Karl Toko Ekambi, and Ghana’s Thomas Partey inspired crucial first-leg wins for their sides.

2019 CAF African Player of the Year, Sadio Mane and his teammates, Mohammed Salah, Naby Keita and Joel Matip were on the losing side.

Some did not feature at all, remaining on the bench for their various teams.
