He was one of the most anticipated yesterday at San Siro for the big match against Milan, but his individual performance was along the lines of the entire development of the match: extremely disappointing. The name in question is that of Teun Koopmeinersdeployed yesterday by Motta in the strange position of fake center forward. Throughout the match he danced between the attacking midfield and the penalty area, often exchanging positions with McKennie but with essentially zero results in terms of scoring opportunities.
Among the various newspapers, none rewarded him with sufficiency. The least severe is Tuttosport, with 5.5 and the following opinion: “He also moves well between the lines, but he cannot represent a point of reference up front. He tries with a shot from the left in the first half which Maignan watches get lost in In the second half, also due to a physical decline, he begins to make a few too many technical errors and ends up being one of the worst on the pitch. But it’s not just his fault. It is counterbalanced by La Repubblica, which gives 4.5.
