There was a real mixed bag of performances as AC Milan made hard work of beating struggling Hellas Verona with Sandro Tonali scoring a winner late on.
In their ratings, La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanPosts) began by giving the team’s performance overall a 6.5 out of 10, which was the same score that Stefano Pioli got for his management and not being afraid to make changes at the interval.
The man of the match was Sandro Tonali who received a score of 7, while the player who struggled the most in the eyes of the paper was Matteo Gabbia who turned the ball into his own net for Verona’s equaliser and got a 5.
Ciprian Tatarusanu got a 5.5, Pierre Kalulu and Theo Hernandez got the same, then Fikayo Tomori got a 6 to round off the defence. Rade Krunic scored a 5.5, Brahim Diaz a 6, Yacine Adli a 5 and Rafael Leao a 6.5.
Olivier Giroud got a 5 for missing a big chance to make it 2-0, with Divock Origi (5.5), Ante Rebic (6.5) and Malick Thiaw (7) – who made two outstanding blocks – coming on as subs.
