AC Milan managed to get the job done against Hellas Verona on Saturday night at San Siro, but it was far from straightforward in the end.
After being 2-0 down at the break, Olivier Giroud’s header with just over 30 minutes left halved the deficit, and then an equaliser came from a penalty of Milan’s own before the winner came via an own-goal from Gunther.
In today’s Tuttosport player ratings (via MilanNews), there are two Rossoneri players who deserved a score of 7, which was the top score given out. It was two substitutes as well in Rafael Leao and Samu Castillejo, who were decisive in engineering the comeback.
A 6.5 was given to Davide Calabria, Rade Krunic and Ante Rebic, while a 6 went to Ciprian Tatarusanu, Fikayo Tomori, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Franck Kessie and Oliver Giroud. A 5.5 went to Alessio Romagnoli, Alexis Saelemaekers and Ismael Bennacer, and a 5 was given to Daniel Maldini and Fode Ballo-Touré, who both did not convince.

I must have watched a different game, Isma was at least 6.5. He was one of the few bright spots in the first half.
Bennacer was one of the worst players, he was supposed to play a defensive role and he did that . His problem is that he has tendency of holding the ball too much in our own half and those are tge mistakes that led to the goals
Let’s agree to disagree.
