AC Milan secured three vital points in their pursuit of consistency, beating Frosinone by three goals to one last night. Several players did well, including one of the goalscorers Luka Jovic, while a few others could have done better.
Jovic opened the scoring at the end of the first half with a composed finish, making the most of a failed clearance. Christian Pulisic followed it up with an even better goal, assisted by Mike Maignan, and Fikayo Tomori then scored the final goal for Milan.
As stated in today’s edition of Gazzetta dello Sport (see the photo below), the likes of Maignan, Theo Hernandez, Pulisic and Jovic were the best on the pitch with a rating of 7/10. Just like in our player ratings, the Serbian was named the MOTM by the newspaper.
Hernandez was brilliant at centre-back, showing great discipline, and Maignan also made a great stop in the first half. Well-deserved high ratings for the quartet, in other words, and Pioli will be hoping for more of that in the coming weeks.
Fikayo Tomori and Yunus Musah did better than average at 6.5/10. The Englishman probably would have got a 7 if it hadn’t been for a big mistake in the first half. Davide Calabria, Alessandro Florenzi, Tijjani Reijnders and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, meanwhile, all got a 6/10.
Samuel Chukwueze, as per the newspaper, was by far the worst on the pitch with a rating of 5/10. He failed to beat his man in the attacking phase, struggling to get the crosses in as well, and he also made a big mistake with a clearance towards the end.
