Skriniar, Morata, Rabiot, Brozovic: verdicts on Juventus vs. Inter

Marcelo Brozovic and Milan Skriniar were Inter‘s best players against Juventus last night, while Italian sports papers saw Adrien Rabiot as the Old Lady’s MVP.

Gazzetta dello Sport, Tuttosport and Il Corriere dello Sport crowned the France international as Juventus’ best player on the pitch at the Allianz Stadium last night.

The former PSG midfielder ‘was aggressive and played a lot vertically,’ wrote La Gazzetta dello Sport, which rated him 7/10 like Corsport.

On the other hand, Alvaro Morata was Juventus’ worst performer in Turin. Not only he wasn’t dangerous in the final third, but he also caused the decisive penalty kick for a foul on Denzel Dumfries in the first half. He was rated 5 by Gazzetta and Tuttosport and 5.5 by Il Corriere dello Sport.

Juventus probably played a better brand of football than Inter, but didn’t have many clear-cut chances also thanks to a super performance by Milan Skriniar. Gazzetta and Corsport saw the Slovakia international as the Nerazzurri’s MVP.

La Gazzetta dello Sport said that the former Samp man had ‘triumphed against Dusan Vlahovic’, who only had one chance to score. ‘He fears nothing and nobody,’ added Il Corriere dello Sport.

Skriniar was rated 7 by Gazzetta and Corsport and 7.5 by Tuttosport, the same as Marcelo Brozovic, who described the Croatia international as the ‘soul of Inter.’ The Nerazzurri haven’t won any of the three Serie A games played without Brozovic this term.

Lautaro Martinez was rated 5 by all three Italian sports papers. He was never dangerous and risked a second yellow card for a foul on Giorgio Chiellini in the first half.
