The midfielder has the knockout ball but misses it, the defense still closes without conceding a goal, Sanabria crossbar in the first half
MILINKOVIC-SAVIC 6: he is ready for Aebischer’s shot in the second half, sending it to the corner, but he doesn’t have to make such dangerous interventions.
VOJVODA 6.5: returns to defense in the supporting role in Lovato’s place. he gets a yellow at the ready but the card doesn’t affect him. When he can, he also breaks away to push, returning to his classic role.
GOOD MORNING 6: he has Zirkzee in front of him and somehow manages to limit him, even if the Bologna striker goes away from him a couple of times. All in all he manages to harness it and close without making any mistakes.
MASINA 6.5: he finds his starting shirt again after weeks, the last time it happened against Udinese – another ex, like tonight -, and in his area Ndoye doesn’t sting that much. In the finale he unravels a complicated situation.
BELLANOVA 5.5: We always expect a lot from his accelerations but tonight he seems more relaxed, thanks also to Kristiansen (st 41′ LAZARO SV)
RICCI 6: This time too he brings his usual quality, both when he plays as a midfielder and more advanced, after Vlasic’s exit due to injury.
ILIC 6: you have a ball at your feet to push into the net but the shot that could have stunned Bologna fails, 22 minutes into the second half. Of course, the merits also belong to Skorupski. In the first half his cross led Sanabria to hit the crossbar.
RODRIGUEZ 6: back on the wing, he’s not a winger but he does what Juric asks of him, never suffering.
VLASIC 6: his match lasts less than half an hour, he gets involved in a couple of dangerous actions by Toro without however leaving too much of an impact (st 28′ LINETTY 5.5: a few too many mistakes, not from him)
SANABRIA 5.5: he is also unlucky, like when in the 18th minute he hits the crossbar squarely after anticipating Calafiori. In the second half he “saves” Zapata’s shot: another bad evening (st 33′ PELLEGRI SV)
ZAPATA 5.5: he also has the opportunities this evening, but between saves from Skorupski and his teammates on the line he isn’t so rewarded. Yet it is the one that spends the most, both forward and in the coverage phase.
All. JURIC 5.5: the formation changes but the substance is always the same, after all miracles cannot be achieved. It’s a shame because beyond the limits and the usual details, Toro is also a bit unlucky tonight. But it is worrying how difficult it is for this team to score: and thank goodness they concede few goals, or we would be commenting on another ranking.
