MILAN – A cura di Ivan Cardia
Maignan 7 – Could his gloves be missing on the day he can award Milan the Scudetto? Of course not: in the first half he makes a save on Muriel seem very easy, at the end of the match he closes all hope of a comeback in the face of Zapata.
Calabria 6 – Pioli’s favorite tactical weapon, who, as often happens, invites him to go central. Difficult life on Zappacosta, he holds up a blow despite the pains in his back. (From 79 ‘Florenzi sv).
Rabbit 7 – From his recovery, vehemently bordering on the irregular, the advantage signed by Leao was born. From his attention, from his interventions, from a match in which the Atalanta forwards never manage to overcome him, the certainties of Milan come back there.
Tomori 6.5 – He trusts the young partner and makes no mistake. Careful, in the end he also contributes to blocking Zapata.
Theo Hernandez 7.5 – He hasn’t scored since January, he has a hot foot and a great desire. He looks for the jewel on a free kick, finds it with an impressive bucking: after 75 minutes at high intensity, he takes half of Atalanta for a walk and scores the goal that closes the contest.
Tonali 6 – Always charged in the soul, it appears a little less in the physical. He gets busy, on a Sunday far from his standards. (Dal 63′ Bennacer 6,5 – The yellow never fails, it favors the good moment of his).
Kessie 7 – Honors the last at San Siro as a Milan player with one of his best performances of the season. The attempt to be regretted?
Saelemaekers 5.5 – He plays very wide, often lowering himself to help the defense on the insertions for the central streets of Calabria. Some flaws in the defensive phase, on the offensive front arrived only for a central shot that does not create problems for Musso. (Dal 54 ‘Messiah 6,5 – Enter and send Leao to goal. Another inventiveness compared to the Belgian).
Krunic 7 – Pioli gives him confidence, pays her back with interest. Precious between the lines, he is the one who steals the ball that leads to Theo’s science fiction goal. (Dal 79′ Bakayoko sv).
Leo 7 – If Milan has the goal of launching the Scudetto sprint, their sprint is what it takes. On the left, alternating current as so many times. When he passes to the center, the first chance is immediately good: control of the head and Koopmeiners to chase, the goal of the match is his.
Giroud 5,5 – Little involved with his teammates, he struggles to make himself decisive in the defense of the Dea. Warned for protests about a possible penalty, he goes out and Milan finds the way to goal. (Dal 54′ Rebic 6 – Growing, without overdoing it. Only 16 balls touched, but it makes itself felt).
Rungs 7.5 – A winning team does not change and is right. He closes the season at San Siro with a nice and heavy victory. He plays on par with Gasperini, then puts him under guessing even the changes, Messias above all. 90 minutes, maybe less, from a historic company: hat.
ATALANTA – Curated by Paolo Lora Lamia
Musso 6 – Little work in the first part of the game, except for some exits. in the second half he raises the white flag, on Leao’s flicker and on Theo Hernandez’s coast to coast.
The Roon 6 – Deployed as often happens lately in the defensive trio, he covers this role with excellent self-denial and not falling during the match.
Palomino 6,5 – Among the best in the Nerazzurri shirt, for the amount of balls he manages to move away from the area, anticipating his opponents.
Djimsiti 6 – Attentive first half, at the end of which, however, he risks with an intervention on Giroud near the penalty area. From 79 ‘Scalvini sv.
Hateboer 5.5 – The most in the shadow of Gasperini’s formation, having to face two on his range of competence like Leao and Theo Hernandez who are also in the day. From 79 ‘Demiral sv.
Koopmeiners 5,5 – In addition to making his contribution in the median in terms of quantity and quality, he sometimes tries some forward insertion. He falls in the second half on all fronts, also being conditioned by the warning.
Freuler 6 – Usual game of running and grit in the nerve center of the pitch. Often under pressure on the Rossoneri ball carriers.
Zappacosta 6,5 – A train on the left, which puts Calabria in difficulty and shows itself forward both in terms of conclusions and crosses for the teammates. Better in the first part of the game.
Pessina 5.5 – Between the two attacking midfielders atalanta is the one that is seen least forward, given that he thinks more about giving substance in the middle of the field while not even excelling on this front. From 70 ‘ God 6 – He enters the finale, being stopped in the action which is then overturned and finalized by Theo Hernandez.
Pasalic 6 – It does not emerge as dramatically as in the last few races, but it still stands out in the development phase of the action. From 56 ‘ Malinovskyi 5,5 – He should give Atalanta more quality but he can’t make an impact as on other occasions.
Muriel 6 – He tries to keep Atalanta’s defense busy, moving a lot and having the best chance of the first half with a shot blocked by Maignan. From 56 ‘ Zapata 6 – The most dangerous of the Nerazzurri in the second half, with three unsuccessful occasions.
Gian Piero Gasperini 6 – He harnesses Milan in the first half, and then gives in in the second half with two lightning counter-attacks finalized by Leao and Theo Hernandez. Europe further and further away.
