Ostigard 7.5: put in a truly outstanding performance. Defensively, he neutralised Orban and, in the opposition’s penalty area, rose highest to head home the decisive goal. Vasquez 6.5: managed the various phases of play well, showing good organisation. Ellertsson 7: a thorn in the side of the opposition forwards, he’s always there to disrupt the play of Bowie and his teammates. Malinovsky 6: a game of ups and downs, which overall can be considered adequate. He perhaps lacks a bit more precision. (from 26’ 2nd half: Amorim 6: came into the game well, making his presence felt on the counter-attack.) Frendrup 6.5: always in the thick of the action, he moved the ball quickly and linked up well with his teammates in midfield. Messias 7: ran a lot, covering the entire wing. His one-on-one moments were good. He came off exhausted. (43’ 2nd half: Martin: n/a) Sabelli 5.5: a step back from recent performances, a bit inaccurate with his passing. (14’ 2nd half: Norton-Cuffy 6.5: came into the game very well, putting himself at the service of his teammates and effectively switching play from defence to attack). Colombo 6: good attitude, adequate overall. (from 34' s.t. Ekhator: n/a) Ekuban 5.5: needed more ruthlessness in front of goal, a bit reserved and timid. (from 15' s.t. Vitinha 7: came on and turned the game around in a matter of minutes. A significant impact today, repaying his manager’s faith.) Manager De Rossi 7: A well-organised Genoa side that always knows what it has to do. He also managed to find excellent substitutes from the bench.
