With Aston Villa having triumphed over Juventus in the Peace Cup final in a penalty shoot-out, the excitement in Andalucia is coming to a close.
We already know that Porto's Hulk is the tournament's top scorer, and that Villa are the top team - but there remains another matter to be settled.
Just who was the best player at the Peace Cup 2009?
The Goal.com editors put their heads together and came up with the following shortlist...
And The Winner Is...
The player who received the most plaudits from the above is Ashley Young.
The ex-Watford ace may not have been too active on the goal front but he was a constant menace nonetheless, and certainly drove his team forward.
Congratulations to Ashley Young, the Goal.com Peace Cup Player of the Tournament!

Just who was the best player at the Peace Cup 2009?
The Goal.com editors put their heads together and came up with the following shortlist...
| Marc Albrighton Aston Villa |
A talent surely now destined for league action, Albrighton was a surprise package who must have delighted his coach, Martin O'Neill. |
 |
| Gianluigi Buffon Juventus |
The old, reliable stopper was beaten just once from open play, with it otherwise taking penalties to pass him. |
 |
| Mauro Camoranesi Juventus |
Alongside Felipe Melo, the World Cup-winner was a standout against Real Madrid. |
 |
| Giorgio Chiellini Juventus |
Another dependable influence who helped keep a clean sheet in the final. |
 |
| Carlos Cuellar Aston Villa |
A towering presence prior to the final and pretty effective in it, too, even netting a penalty. |
 |
| Brad Guzan Aston Villa |
Were it not for his saves, the Villans would not have progressed as they did. |
 |
| Hulk Porto |
The top scorer with three goals, the Portuguese ace made short work of Lyon. |
 |
| Ashley Young Aston Villa |
The wing wonder was an attacking powerhouse as always. |
 |
And The Winner Is...
The player who received the most plaudits from the above is Ashley Young.
The ex-Watford ace may not have been too active on the goal front but he was a constant menace nonetheless, and certainly drove his team forward.
Congratulations to Ashley Young, the Goal.com Peace Cup Player of the Tournament!
