UEFA Champions League squad of the seasonPublished: Monday 2 June 2014, 11.00CET
Seven Real Madrid CF players have been selected in the UEFA technical study group's 18-man UEFA Champions League squad for the 2013/14 campaign. The UEFA technical study group (TSG) has included seven players from winners Real Madrid CF in their best squad of the 2013/14 UEFA Champions League. The TSG has chosen 18 players – the same number a coach selects for a UEFA Champions League game under the competition's regulations – in their squad.
There is no designated starting XI.
Madrid conceded just eight goals in 13 UEFA Champions League fixtures this term,
so it is no surprise that three of the five defenders named – Daniel Carvajal, Pepe and Sergio Ramos – play for the Merengues.
The quintet is completed by Diego Godin, a runner-up with Club Atletico de Madrid, and FC Bayern Munchen's Philipp Lahm, protecting goalkeepers Thibaut Courtois and Manuel Neuer.
A further three Madrid men feature in the midfield lineup – Angel Di Maria, Luka Modrić and Xabi Alonso –alongside Bayern's Toni Kroos,
FC Barcelona maestro Andres Iniesta and Atletico captain Gabi, whose team-mate Diego Costa, scorer of eight goals, makes the cut among five forwards.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who registered a season-record 17 goals in the campaign, is joined by Marco Reus, Arjen Robben and Zlatan Ibrahimović.
The TSG convened after the UEFA Champions League final to discuss the decider itself, trends in the knockout rounds, this squad and the best goals of the competition.
UEFA coaching ambassador Sir Alex Ferguson and UEFA's chief technical officer Ioan Lupescu chaired the meeting.
Also present were Mircea Lucescu, Roy Hodgson, Thomas Schaaf and Fernando Hierro. The TSG's technical report will be published in September.
