Juventus suffered their first domestic loss of the season against AC Milan tonight in the Super Cup semi-final. Here are our player ratings:
Starting XI
Michele di Gregorio – 4.5
He was helpless against the penalty, but his decision to rush off his line for the second goal was questionable and costly.
Nicolo Savona – 6.0
A decent effort, but his inexperience showed at crucial moments. Juventus may need to consider reinforcement at right-back.
Federico Gatti – 5.0
An unfortunate own goal in a high-stakes match. Gatti needs to sharpen his decision-making in such crucial games.
Pierre Kalulu – 6.0
He was solid for most of the game, but his composure and leadership faltered after Juventus conceded the penalty.

Left the left flank exposed too often, and Milan exploited it to great effect for their second goal.
Khephren Thuram – 6.0
A decent performance, contributing well to Juventus’ dominance in possession.
Manuel Locatelli – 6.0
Was performing well until he conceded the penalty. The error seemed to rattle him for the rest of the game.
Samuel Mbangula – 7.0
The Belgian youngster was good, showing great energy and creativity. Juventus struggled after he was substituted.
Teun Koopmeiners – 6.5
A key figure in Juventus’ midfield control, but like others, he couldn’t prevent the late collapse.
Kenan Yildiz – 7.5
Undoubtedly Juventus’ best player on the night. His goal was superb, and he posed a constant threat.
Dusan Vlahovic – 4.5
A disappointing performance. Vlahovic failed to make an impact in a game where his presence was sorely needed.
Substitutions
Andrea Cambiaso – 5.0
Introduced to protect the lead, but Juventus conceded almost immediately. Failed to provide defensive stability.
Nicolas Gonzalez – 5.0
Usually reliable as a substitute, but tonight he was off the pace and misplaced key passes.
Douglas Luiz – N/A
Came on too late to influence the game.
Timothy Weah – N/A
Not on the pitch long enough to leave a mark.
Nicolo Fagioli – N/A
Didn’t have sufficient time to make a meaningful contribution.
