MOTTA 6 – Good saves on Piotrowski and Zaniolo in the closing stages, but his short parry on Atta’s 2-2 goal weighs heavily.
LAZZARI 5.5 – Okay going forward but confused at the back, Bayo skips past him for the first goal. Faulted by the newspapers.
ROMAGNOLI 6 – Solid with no glaring faults, hit the post in the dying minutes. Balanced between Messaggero and Repubblica.
PROVSTGAARD 6 – Positioning to be reviewed on Ehizibue, battles nonetheless. Decent average rating.
PELLEGRINI 7 – Spectacular goal for the 1-1 changes everything, rated highly in Gazzetta.
BASIC 6.5 – Assist for Pedro, grows after the break. Stable in the ratings.
PATRIC 6 – Unconventional deep-lying playmaker with physicality, decent marks in Corriere.
TAYLOR 5.5 – A step backwards, doesn’t close down on Ehizibue. Low consensus.
CANCELLIERI 5.5 – Yellow card and little inspiration, a goal-saving defensive recovery but overall flop.
DIA 5 – The worst, impalpable without a goal. Criticised everywhere.
NOSLIN 6.5 – Acceleration and assist, better in the centre. Good average rating.
DELE-BASHIRU (46′) 5.5 – Missed a sitter and looked listless, costs the missed 3-3.
PEDRO (46′) 8 – Goal and assist, timeless. Top marks across the board.
ISAKSEN (65′) 7 – Decisive cross and a miracle, makes a good impact off the bench.
MALDINI (76′) 6.5 – Salvific tap-in for 3-3, providential.
TAVARES (84′) n/r – Enters in the final minutes, few touches, zero impact.
SARRI 6.5 – Well-chosen substitutions, character despite the packed treatment room. Good management of the second half.
