Nicolò Barella was the MOTM of InterJuventus, while his direct opponent Adrien Rabiot was the worst player on the pitch at the Giuseppe Meazza. 

Inter:

Handanovic 6.5 – Showed cat-like reflexes to deny Federico Chiesa at the end of the second half. Aside from that, Juve never created any real danger for him.

Skriniar 7 – Solid rock, controlled Cristiano Ronaldo easily.

Nicolò Barella was the MOTM of Inter-Juventus, while his direct opponent Adrien Rabiot was the worst player on the pitch at the Giuseppe Meazza. 

Inter:

Handanovic 6.5 – Showed cat-like reflexes to deny Federico Chiesa at the end of the second half. Aside from that, Juve never created any real danger for him.

Skriniar 7 – Solid rock, controlled Cristiano Ronaldo easily.

De Vrij 7 – Commanded the defence and passed the ball out from the back well.

Bastoni 7.5 – A brilliant assist for Nicolò Barella and some key interceptions.

Hakimi 7 – Not as devastating as he usually is, but still difficult to stop.

Barella 8.5 – Sometimes it seemed there were two No. 23 on the pitch. He initiated every counterattack, he assisted Arturo Vidal and closed the game with his goal. Absolutely brilliant. MOTM

Brozovic 7 – Always in the right place at the right time.

Vidal 7.5 – Seemed to kiss the Juventus crest before the kick-off, he made up for it scoring the opener after 10 minutes. For one hour he looked like his old self. (Gagliardini 77 N/A)

Young 6.5 – Good game, in constant motion up and down the left flank.  (Darmian 72 N/A)

Lukaku 6.5 – He used his usual physical strength to keep Juventus defenders away from him. Didn’ have many goal scoring opportunities.

Lautaro 6 – Wasted a big chance in the first half, could have been Inter’s second (Alexis Sanchez 85 N/A).

Coach: Conte 7 – Proved Pirlo has still plenty to learn.

Juventus

Szczesny 6.5 – Nothing he can do to avoid Inter’s goals, made a couple of good saves.

Danilo 5 – Vidal anticipated him to put Inter ahead, too often susceptible to quick one-twos.

Bonucci 5 – Booked in the first half, struggled to control Inter’s strikers.

Chiellini 5.5 – Amazing duels with Lukaku, the Inter striker often had the better.

Frabotta 4.5 – Left too much space behind him when Barella scored the second (Bernardeschi 5.5 – Soft approach, too soft.)

Chiesa 5 – Never dribbled past his direct opponent.

Bentancur  4.5 – Way to slow, both with and without the ball.

Rabiot 4 – Barella was everywhere and he just couldn’t cope with it (McKennie 58 5.5 – Had a good chance from a left corner kick).

Ramsey 5 – Little quality, he never created troubles (Kulusevski 58 6 – Completed a few dribbling, at least he tried to create something.)

Morata 4.5 – Way too irritated, failed to make any impact.

Cristiano Ronaldo 4.5 – Just as irritated as Morata. His long-range shot after Vidal’s goal and his body language summed it all up.

Coach: Pirlo 4.5 – Juventus made their first shot on target after 82 minutes. Lack of quality in the middle of the pitch remains a big issue for the Old Lady.
