"Maignan (6): Bologna had a mere two shots on target, so the No.16 wasn't exactly called into action that often. When he was, however, he did well and also had decent passing throughout the game. A good win to celebrate the renewal. De Winter (6.5): He has really grown a lot in the last few weeks, going from uncertain to commanding at the back."
"Tonight, he won a lot of duels and showcased great positioning, both in terms of blocking crosses and winning the ball back by stepping up. Gabbia (6.5): I thought he used some smart tricks to throw Castro off his game, which really helped Milan take control of the play. On top of that, he remained calm even in difficult build-up situations, which is so important in his position."
"Pavlovic (6): Solid defending as always, though Bologna did get through a couple of times on his side. Nevertheless, he sacrificed himself a lot with runs forward, even if that is something we have become used to from him. Athekame (6.5): It was a big chance for him and you have to say that he took it. He was always on the move, more or less, and the cross for Nkunku on the first goal was proof of what he can do in the final third. It was actually a really nice cross with his weaker foot."
AC Milan secured a dominant victory over Bologna, claiming all three points. The goalkeeper had minimal work with only two shots on target but produced tidy passing.
