UEFA called BATE «team of the week» in Europe

The official website of the organization had informed about it.

The Belarusian side have been learning their trade in the UEFA Champions League and claimed their first group stage win at the 13th attempt away to LOSC Lille on matchday one. Second opponents FC Bayern München would surely prove a step too far, however, but last year's runners-up were swept aside in style in Minsk, Aleksandr Pavlov and Vitali Rodionov putting the home team in command. Although Franck Ribéry pulled a goal back, Renan Bressan wrapped up a famous victory in the final seconds to take Viktor Goncharenko's team three points clear in Group F and leave the coach celebrating a "simply fantastic" evening.
