Verona’s report cards – Montipò keeps his team afloat as best he can, horror entry from Suslov

Final result: Lazio-Verona 1-0

Montipò 6.5 – The best of the Venetian team. In the first half he stood out for a clearance with his foot on Isaksen, while in the second half he made two more excellent interventions before capitulating to Zaccagni’s flick.

Tchatchoua 6 – He suffers especially at the start, and then takes the measure of his opponents. In the push phase, he is preferred over Cabal. From 78′ Centonze sv.

Magnani 6 – Evidence of good solidity in the middle of the yellow-blue area, where he leaves little to Tudor’s attackers more in the first than in the second half.

Coppola 6 – Together with Magnani they form a highly reliable couple, which limits the dangers in the Montipò area. More suffering after the break, but when he also came close to scoring.

Cabal 6 – Together with Lazovic, he guarantees decent coverage in the left lane. He thinks much less about pushing on his side.

Serdar 6 – Good mastiff of the midfield, who acts as a screen in front of the defense, stopping several of the Biancocelesti’s actions, especially in the first part of the match.

Folorunsho 5.5 – He should guarantee both substance and quality at the midfield, but struggles quite a bit when it comes to the second aspect. From 86′ Henry sv.

Noslin 5.5 – With Lazovic dropped back to counter Isaksen, he moves to the left midfield and makes a very good contribution in the first half and then appears decidedly more anonymous in the second half of the game.

Mitrovic 5.5 – Carousel on the frontcourt, sometimes trying to widen but without particularly effective plays in the final metres. From 60′ Duda 5.5 – He should give Hellas new solutions from midfield upwards, but he fails in his aim.

Lazovic 6 – He is deployed in a more defensive role than usual, because Isaksen is rampant on his side. Good job against this opponent. From 78′ Bonazzoli sv.

Swiderski 5.5 – He isn’t served with great continuity, but when he gets an inviting ball in the first half he wastes it badly. He agrees to do some dirty work. From 60′ Suslov 5 – Definitely revisable impact on the race. He loses the ball which gives rise to the action finalized by Zaccagni.

Marco Baroni 6 – In the first half he is good at wrapping up Lazio, surprising with the choice to sacrifice Lazovic on Isaksen. Instead he resumed too passively, where in the end the goal arrived which led to the defeat.
