The Rossoneri made it five wins in their opening six Serie A games but they did not have it all their own way, as Ibrahimovic scored a bicycle kick winner inside the final 10 minutes to propel his side to all three points after a Rodrigo De Paul penalty had cancelled out Franck Kessie’s opener.
In their player ratings, La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanNews) awarded the Swede a score of 7.5 out of 10 for registering the game-winning goal and an assist.
There was yet another great performance by Kessie, who scored a 7 and scored a goal, while Calabria, Dalot, Kjaer, Bennacer, Leao, Diaz and Rebic amassed scores of 6.5.
All the other players involved got a mark of 6 except for Saelemaekers (5.5) who struggled to impact the game and Romagnoli (5) who was wrong to make a challenge that led to a penalty kick.
