On Tuesday, February 18, the first four second-leg matches of the UEFA Champions League preliminary round took place, and our team has chosen the standout player of the day.
Club Brugge traveled to face Atalanta, holding a 2-1 advantage from the first leg. The Bergamo side had hopes of turning the tie around, but all doubts were erased in the first half. Brugge scored three goals before halftime, effectively sealing the contest.
The star of the night was Brugge winger Shamseddine Talbi. The 19-year-old Belgian netted a brace, scoring in the 3rd and 27th minutes. Just before the break, Brugge added a third, while Atalanta managed to pull one goal back.
At 19 years and 285 days old, Talbi became only the fourth player under 20 to score a brace in a UEFA Champions League playoff match. The only players to achieve this feat before him were Kylian Mbappé, Nicolò Zaniolo, and Erling Haaland.
According to Dailysports, Shamseddine Talbi is the standout player of the day.
