Trio decisive while new signing struggles: Player ratings for Milan-Verona from Italian papers | OneFootball

AC Milan relied on a couple of players to get the win against Hellas Verona last night, as the game was decided by individual brilliance. As always, the newspapers have delivered their player ratings this morning.

A few Milan players did well last night, even if the overall performance was average, and these include Santiago Gimenez, Alex Jimenez, Joao Felix, Rafael Leao and so on. In our ratings, we gave the Mexican the MOTM award for the decisive goal.

Taking a look at the player ratings handed out by Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport (see photos below), they both agree that Gimenez was one of the best with a rating of 7/10. The former newspaper gave this to Leao as well, naming him the MOTM.

The worst according to the newspaper, meanwhile, was Riccardo Sottil with a rating of 5/10 and 5.5/10. It was the winger’s full debut for the Rossoneri and while he had one good cross, he struggles aside from that and the rating is certainly justified.
