"Maignan (7): He couldn't do much about the goals, especially the first one, but he managed to make a few saves tonight still. There was a brilliant one towards the end, keeping a low effort out despite seeing the ball late. That save in itself was enough for this rating. De Winter (5.5): The Belgian was okay when going forward, in fairness, but it wasn't always brilliant in the defensive phase. It felt like he mistimed the ball several times and that certainly hurt him in the duels."
"Saelemaekers (6.5): What can I say? He opened the scoring with a nice low-driven effort with his weaker foot, and then managed to win the penalty for Milan. Sadly, what everyone will be talking about is his huge miss at the end, rounding the keeper and still failing to find the back of the net. Does that miss warrant a 6, even?"
AC Milan failed to take all three points against Parma following several big misses in the second half. Mike Maignan produced important saves, including a brilliant low stop late in the game. De Winter contributed going forward but struggled at times defensively with mistimed challenges. Gabbia and Pavlovic displayed good positioning and aided build-up play but suffered occasional lapses that contributed to Parma's second goal. Saelemaekers scored, won a penalty, and then missed a decisive late chance. Fofana pressed well but failed to track a key run. Modric was largely effective with a few misplaced passes.
