Player of the match – Sergej Milinkovic-Savic
It was Pedro who got the all-important goal for the Biancocelesti but Milinkovic-Savic was key in the build up and played the final pass for Pedro to finish off. He’s had better games, but the Serbian midfielder was at the centre of some promising passing moves for Maurizio Sarri’s side.
