The paper have printed their player ratings this morning (via MilanLive) under the headline: “Tonali cancels Luis Alberto, selfless Rebic.” The former Brescia midfielder got a score of 8 out of 10 for his performance, as he ‘dragged Luis Alberto to the brink of a nervous breakdown and this was the Gattusian part of his game. The pass with which he triggered the 2-0 move speaks to us a little of Pirlo, but let’s not expand, it’s better’.
Ante Rebic got a 7.5 for racking up two assists, while there were great games also for Davide Calabria, Alessio Romagnoli, Brahim Diaz and Ibrahimovic, all awarded with a 7. A 6.5 was given to Mike Maignan, Fikayo Tomori, Theo Hernandez, Ismael Bennacer, Alexis Saelemaekers and Franck Kessie. The Ivorian had an assured performance, but missed a penalty.
The full ratings, therefore, are as follows: Maignan 6.5, Calabria 7, Tomori 6.5, Romagnoli 7, Theo Hernandez 6.5, Kessiè 6.5 (61′ Bakayoko N/A, 74′ Bennacer 6.5), Tonali 8, Florenzi 6 (61′ Saelemaekers 6.5), Brahim Diaz 7 (80′ Ballo-Tourè N/A), Leao 7.5 (60′ Ibrahimovic 7), Rebic 7.5. Pioli 8.
