Torino V Reggina Player Ratings

As I was lucky enough to attend this game, I have decided to put my ratings for how each player performed below. You can also see the ratings that Italian sports newspapers La Gazzetta Dello Sport and Tuttosport gave the players in brackets as well.

Rubinho - 6 - (Gazzetta 6,Tuttosport 6)
Had little to do throughout the game in honesty, but did it well. Had no chance with the goal.

D'Ambrosio - 5 - (Gazzetta 5.5,Tuttosport 5.5)
Disappointing performance by the young right back, often gave the ball away and his crossing was poor.

Di Cesare - 6.5 - (Gazzetta 5.5,Tuttosport 6)
Decent display by the former Chelsea man, looked comfortable throughout the game.

Pratali - 6 - (Gazzetta 6,Tuttosport 6.5)
Given the tough task of replacing the injured Angelo Ogbonna, he gave a solid performance, although could perhaps have done better for the goal.

Zavagno - 6 - (Gazzetta 5,Tuttosport 5.5)
Solid display, but his crossing was not as impressive as it has been in previous games.

Gasbarroni - 6.5 - (Gazzetta 6,Tuttosport 6)
Started brightly on the left wing, cutting inside with his right foot that enabled him to display his sometimes excellent dribbling skills. However, he did fade as the game went on and was substituted.

De Feudis - 6.5 - (Gazzetta 6, Tuttosport 6)
Not spectacular by any means but did a competent job as a holding midfielder.

De Vezze - 7 - (Gazzetta 6.5, Tuttosport 6.5)
Good performance by the midfielder who was returning to the starting line up after injury, tried to support the strikers when he could.

Pagano - 6 - (Gazzetta 5, Tuttosport 5.5)
Unable to replicate his performance against Albinoleffe, as he struggled to get into the game, and was substituted. Although he did come come close to scoring with a header.

Antenucci - 5.5 - (Gazzetta 5, Tuttosport 5)
Disappointing performance by the front man, although to be fair, he never really had a clear cut goalscoring opportunity.

Bianchi - 7.5 - (Gazzetta 6.5, Tuttosport 6)
The captain had a slow start to the match, and his link up play with Antenucci could be improved. However, despite wasting a great chance on the hour mark, he seemed motivated by the miss and was very impressive in the last thirty minutes, and got the deserved equaliser late on.

Substitutes

Sgrigna - 6.5 - (Gazzetta 6.5, Tuttosport 6.5)
Looked bright in his return from injury, and got the vital assist for Bianchi's goal. Should play a major role in the run in at the end of the season.

Iunco - 5 - (Gazzetta 5.5, Tuttosport 6)
This was his first appearance since December after a long injury lay off and it was evident as the former Cittadella man looked rusty.

Cavanda - N/A
