Mohamed Salah might have picked up a Champions League winners' medal after his side's 2-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur, but that's not enough to secure him a spot in the competition's Squad of the Season.
The 26-year-old Egyptian forward opened the scoring in the final from the spot kick, taking his tally up to five in the competition this season after 12 appearances (that's not to mention getting two assists along the way).
However, fans are furious that the Egypt international has been left out of the 20-man squad, which was decided by UEFA's technical observers.
Posted below are the 20 players featuring in the Champions League Squad of the Season.
Goalkeepers: Alisson (Liverpool) and Marc-André ter Stegen (Barcelona).

Midfielders: Moussa Sissoko (Tottenham Hotspur), Hakim Ziyech (Ajax), Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City), Frenkie de Jong (Ajax/now Barcelona), Tanguy Ndombélé (Lyon) and Georginio Wijnaldum (Liverpool).
