Parma v Cremonese: CM's player ratings

The winners and losers of the competition.Parma v Cremonese: CM’s player ratingsThe home side suffered defeat after a lacklustre performance. Strefezza and Caviglia, coming off the bench, were among those who performed adequately. Cremonese finally returned to winning ways after 15 matches. A well-played and organised match. Vardy provided the inspiration and Maleh finished it off. Vandeputte also performed well.Suzuki 6: A slight lapse in reaction to Maleh’s shot, but he then kept the score level on a couple of other occasions. Valenti 5: Vardy was a real thorn in his side and he was often outpaced. Circati 6: a decent performance overall, despite being a bit slow in building up play.(15' s.t. Caviglia 6: made a good impact on coming on, trying to provide an extra boost in attack)Troilo 5: His performance was below par. Lots of mistakes and, above all, too much nervousness.Valeri 5: slow pace and little attacking drive. He was barely visible.Sorensen 5.5: apart from a few solo efforts, he failed to make the impact he should have.(from 15' 2nd half Oristanio 5.5: his substitution made little impact, failing to change the course of the match.)Keita 5.5: started fairly well, but then, especially in the second half, struggled with fatigue and slowed the pace of play. He chased opponents half-heartedly and was absent in attack.(28' 2nd half Estevez: n/a)Ondrejka 5: touched the ball only a few times, and often poorly. (23' 2nd half Elphage: n/a)Britschgi 4.5: numerous positioning and marking errors. His mistake led to Maleh’s goal.Strefezza 6.5: the only one of his team truly in the game, active in attack, trying to trouble the opposition as best he can. Pellegrino 5.5: did little to support his strike partner; a few shots on target but not enough.Manager Cuesta 5: a team that produced little and looked tired. Even the substitutions failed to provide the hoped-for change of pace.Audero 6: didn’t have much to do; kept the game under control Terracciano 6.5: his attacking play was good, with plenty of space to overlap down his wingBianchetti 6.5: closed down the space effectively and made his presence felt physically. A solid performance.(from 44' s.t. Folino: n/a)Luperto 6.5: linked up well with his teammates and tracked back effectively against Pellegrino. Alert and assured throughout the match.Pezzella 6: apart from a few technical errors, his performance was adequate overall.Maleh 7.5: one of his best performances so far. Touched the ball frequently, showed good technique and even scored a goal with an excellent shot from Vardy’s assist.Grassi 6.5: good play in build-up, also helps out when the opposition attack vertically. Vandeputte 7: a goal and a performance full of character. (34' 2nd half Thorsby: n/a)Zerbin 6: he could certainly have done more. He lacks, above all, that final burst in the final third and, above all, more initiative in beating his man.Bonazzoli 6.5: tried to create space for his teammates to run into and was also a threat himself.(from 22' 2nd half Payero 6: made a good impact on the pitch, supporting his teammates.)Sanabria 5: a slight step back compared to recent performances. Rather static in his position. (from 22' s.t. Vardy 7: very mobile in attack, providing a splendid assist for Maleh to finish off.)Manager Giampaolo 7: Cremonese return to winning ways with a well-organised and well-played match. Add GOAL.com as a preferred source on Google to see more of our reporting
