Celebrated football statistics website Whoscored announced the Premier League Team of the Week for gameweek 36 on Tuesday morning, with two Super Eagles-eligible players making the cut.
Former Super Eagles invitee Michael Olise and Chelsea winger Noni Madueke have been included in the Best XI for their outstanding performances against Manchester United and West Ham United respectively.
Olise bagged a brace as Crystal Palace eased to a 4-0 triumph over Manchester United at Selhurst Park.
The France U21 international showed wonderful skill to get past Casemiro before a pinpoint finish past United goalkeeper André Onana to open the scoring in the 12th minute.
After goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta and Tyrick Mitchell, things even got better for Crystal Palace as Olise smashed home a fourth goal for the home team in the 66th minute.
Olsie registered a game-high six shots with three on target, made two key passes and was accurate in 97.3 percent of his passes, while making two interceptions.
Madueke scored and assisted for the second time in three matches as Chelsea thrashed West Ham 5-0 in a London derby at Stamford Bridge.
After making it 3-0 with a header in the 36th minute, the England U21 international turned from scorer to provider three minutes into the second half when he teed up Ivory Coast striker Nicolas Jackson.
Madueke registered a game-high seven shots with four on target and made six key passes while completing three take-ons.
Olise secured a score of 9.17 in Whoscored.com's ratings while Madueke earned 9.69.
