UEFA.com's Europa League team of the week

• Goalkeeper: Sergio Asenjo (Villarreal)
  

With the score goalless, Asenjo rescued the 'Yellow Submarine' on 65 minutes, pushing Roberto Firmino's low shot on to his left-hand upright. The Villarreal No1 has made three outings in Europe this term since returning from injury, conceding only once.

• Defender: Yaroslav Rakitskiy (Shakhtar Donetsk)

Kevin Gameiro's pass bamboozled the centre-back for Sevilla's breakthrough. However, the Ukrainian international made amends midway through the first half for Shakhtar's leveller, finding Marlos with a pin-point pass.

• Defender: Kolo Touré (Liverpool)

The 35-year-old, the oldest player on the pitch, oozed assurance and intelligence until he was left exposed in the final seconds for Villarreal's added-time winner.

• Defender: Olexandr Kucher (Shakhtar Donetsk)

Galloped back to his own goal line to deny Sevilla marksman Kevin Gameiro with a stunning last-ditch block in the second half, scooping the ball up from under his feet and over the crossbar from a tight angle.

• Midfielder: Denis Suárez (Villarreal)

Teed up substitute Adrián López for the goal which turned the opener against Liverpool upside down. The 22-year-old has now laid on six goals in this season's competition, putting him top of the assists rankings.

• Midfielder: Vitolo (Sevilla)

A menace throughout, he broke the deadlock at Shakhtar before winning an 82nd-minute penalty which Gameiro duly dispatched in Lviv.

• Midfielder: Joe Allen (Liverpool)

A typically industrious display from the Welsh dynamo at the heart of Jürgen Klopp's midfield. Worked with precision, gusto and quality in Spain.

• Midfielder: Bruno Soriano (Villarreal)
  

The Madrigal faithful are used to silky football from local hero Bruno, and the 31-year-old delivered again. His exquisite pass played in Suárez, who found Adrián for the first-leg clincher against Liverpool.

• Midfielder: Taras Stepanenko (Shakhtar Donetsk)

A majestic cross from Marlos allowed the No6 to mark an impressive display with a vital goal for the hosts, which turned the tie at the Arena Lviv on its head until the Liga side battled back to draw.

• Forward: Kevin Gameiro (Sevilla)

Made the first for Vitolo to net in Ukraine, then blasted in a penalty eight minutes from time with the hopes of the holders resting on his broad shoulders.

• Forward: Marlos (Shakhtar Donetsk)

His 23rd-minute goal was beautifully-taken – a strike the watching Andriy Shevchenko would have approved of. Left Éver Banega on his knees with an outrageous shimmy shortly after before whipping in the cross that Stepanenko powered in.
