"Maignan (9): Unreal performance from the keeper, making two highly advanced saves on Paz and a fantastic one on Da Cunha's header. I don't care that the header was more or less straight at him; from such close range, and with that power, it's very hard to save - especially since he needed to keep out the 'rebound' as well. Really really good, and on another day, a certain MOTM."
"Saelemaekers (6.5): He's a bit of a strange one tonight. On the one hand, he didn't really find his groove on that right flank, but on the other hand, he had two crucial passes before the first two goals. The first one for Rabiot who won the penalty, and the second for Leao (great cross-field ball). Maybe a 7?"
"Gabbia (6.5): Yes, Como created a lot especially in the first half, but the academy product often helped clean up the mess at the last second. There were some good blocks and also late clearances, including a header on a really dangerous cross when he even managed to put it out for a throw-in, not a corner."
AC Milan came from behind to beat Como and secured three points. Maignan produced an unreal performance, making advanced saves on Paz and a crucial stop to deny Da Cunha's close-range header while preventing the rebound. Tomori offered a mixed display with some poor 1v1 moments but useful interceptions. Gabbia frequently cleaned up danger with blocks and late clearances, including a headed clearance to a throw-in. De Winter showed strong duels and last-second interventions inside the box. Saelemaekers created two crucial chances, one leading to Rabiot's penalty and another a cross-field ball to Leao. Fofana made several high interceptions.
