Achraf Hakimi was the undisputed man of the match of Inter-Bologna but Marcelo Brozovic is also being praised by Italian sports papers.
The former Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund winger scored a brace in the Nerazzurri’s 3-1 win over Bologna on Saturday and each one of the three Italian sports papers give him the MVP award.
“The poor [Aaron] Hickey will have nightmares,” writes La Gazzetta dello Sport that rates 8 Hakimi and 5 the Scottish left-back who struggled to cope with the pace of the Moroccan star.
Both him and Takehiro Tomiyasu were the worst players on the pitch, according to Italian papers.
Marcelo Brozovic assisted Hakimi for his first goal and was the second-best player on the pitch at the Stadio Meazza.
“He is improving,” writes Il Corriere dello Sport. “He is the master of the village, the assist for Hakimi is a thing of beauty.”
