#2 Daniel De Rossi

AS Roma v Atalanta BC - Serie A
Daniel De Rossi

The man who scored an own goal in the previous fixture did more than just score a penalty to repair the damage. He was supreme in the fixture, playing at the base of the midfield and dictating play. A year older to Iniesta, he showed his opposite number that age has nothing to do while pulling strings from midfield.

The 34-year old World Cup winner played Dzeko through with an exquisite ball that landed right in between Umtiti and Pique. He switched play from one wing to the other with his brilliant diagonals and allowed Kevin Strootman, Kolarov and Radja Nainggolan to press Barcelona up the field.

When his team needed him the most, he stepped up and dispatched the penalty with ease.
