Milan 2-2 Fiorentina: Player Ratings
Milan: Maignan 7; Walker 5.5, Tomori 5.5, Thiaw 5, Theo Hernandez 5.5; Reijnders 6, Fofana 6 (80′ Bondo n/a); Musah 5 (25′ Jovic 7), Pulisic 6.5 (80′ Chukwueze n/a), Leao 6; Abraham 7 (55′ Gimenez 5.5) (80′ Joao Felix n/a)
Top Performers for Milan: Abraham & Maignan 7 – Abraham’s tenacity and determination have made him a vital part of manager Sergio Conceiçao’s plans. His persistence in moving the ball into the box led to the opening goal, aiding a Milan side that has often seemed overwhelmed. Goalkeeper Maignan also shone, delivering spectacular saves that secured a critical point for the team.
Lowest Rating for Milan: Musah 5 – Despite a poor performance that warranted criticism, Musah’s earlier substitution by the coach in the first half shows he was placed in a challenging situation. His struggles with ball control under pressure cost Milan, but he didn’t have the opportunity to rectify his errors.
Milan Coach: Sergio Conceiçao 5.5 – Milan’s coach seems to rely on setbacks to inspire his team, as they frequently only show their quality after falling behind. This pattern of waiting for adversity before responding cannot be tolerated in a squad full of talent.
Fiorentina: De Gea 7; Pongracic 5.5 (72′ Comuzzo 6), Pablo Mari 5, Ranieri 5.5; Dodo 7, Fagioli 6.5, Cataldi 5.5 (59′ Ndour 6), Mandragora 6.5 (88′ Adli n/a), Parisi (72′ Folorunsho 6); Gudmundsson 6.5 (59′ Beltran 5.5), Kean 6.5
Top Performers for Fiorentina: De Gea & Dodo 7 – Despite starting in a tough position, De Gea emerged as the key player for Fiorentina with several outstanding saves that delayed Milan’s comeback. Dodo also excelled with his speed and skill, causing problems for Theo Hernandez throughout the match.
Lowest Rating for Fiorentina: Pablo Mari 5 – While Mari showed bravery on the field, he was implicated in both of Milan’s goals due to poor positioning and execution. Given the game’s fast pace, it’s understandable that he found it difficult to maintain composure.
Fiorentina Coach: Raffaele Palladino 6.5 – The Viola displayed commendable resilience, remaining unbeaten in their last three matches against top opposition. Although they may wish they had better managed their early lead, the atmosphere of San Siro and the quality of the opposition presented significant challenges. De Gea’s performance reinforced that Milan could easily have turned the match around.
