They wrote: “At the start, Zielinski’s careless steal was a dead giveaway. He ran out of time and launched a Nerazzurri counterattack. Like a robot, he reprogrammed himself and became the match’s star player. Two goals at San Siro: technique and composure.”
Goal Italy also rated McTominay as the best player on the pitch with a 7.5 rating.
They added: “Scott McTominay, again and again. He makes a mistake on the move that led to the Nerazzurri’s first goal, but is always the last to give up. A leader, an additional striker, and Conte’s all-rounder.”
