Team of the Week honours for Atalanta's Lookman, Dundee United's Adegboyega

Football statistics website Whoscored.com has unveiled its Team of the Week for the Italian Serie A and Scottish Premiership.

Ademola Lookman has been included in a Serie A Team of the Week dominated by Atalanta, who have contributed five players to the Best XI.

Joining Lookman as the Atalanta representatives are: Marten de Roon, Sead Kolašinac, Éderson and Mateo Retegui.

The aforementioned players impressed as the Nerazzurri defeated Genoa 5-1 at the Gewiss Stadium, setting a club record of scoring in nineteen consecutive Serie A home matches in the process. 

Lookman made it four goal involvements in as many games when he set up Mateo Retegui in the 24th minute.

In his last appearance before reporting for international duty in Uyo, the Ballon d'Or nominee registered three shots with one on target, totaled a game-high six key passes, won two fouls for his team and completed a take-on.

Looking at his defensive stats, the Atalanta number 11 managed one interception.

Elsewhere, Norwich City loanee Emmanuel Adegboyega was named in the Scottish Premiership Team of the Week, thanks to his match-winning strike for Dundee United in a 1-0 victory over St Mirren at the SMiSA Stadium.

With fifteen minutes remaining, the central defender nodded home his first goal in Dundee United colours and it proved decisive.

Adegboyega won one aerial duel, was accurate in 78.3 percent of his passes, while registering three tackles, two interceptions and two clearances.
