Summary City victories over Bayern Munich and Southampton were enough to edge Real Madrid by two votes
LONDON (AP) - Manchester City victories over Bayern Munich and Southampton were enough to edge Real Madrid by two votes for team of the week honors in the Associated Press Global Football 10.
The dramatic 3-2 win over Bayern in the Champions League was inspired by a Sergio Aguero hat trick. His exploits earned him player of the week.
Barcelona s Lionel Messi was runner-up to Aguero after becoming the leading scorer in Champions League history with a hat trick against APOEL a week ago.
Madrid was second to City despite setting a club record of sixteen straight victories after beating Basel and Malaga.
Juventus was third, after a 2-1 win against Torino. Andrea Pirlo scored the winner in stoppage time and was third in the player rankings.
