Roma v Inter: Best Giallorossi players according to the press

Roma’s eight-match winning streak may have come to an end against Inter on Saturday night, but the Giallorossi were still able to secure an important point and keep the Nerazzurri at arm’s length in the race for the Champions League

Let’s take a look at who the papers chose as the Giallorossi’s best performer at the Stadio Olimpico.

Il Corriere dello Sport: Radja Nainggolan 7

“Began well but faded as things got difficult in midfield. In an average match he struck the decisive blow to score the equaliser. He showed real desire to score the goal, kicking the ball as he fell to get there before Miranda.”

Il Corriere della Sera: Radja Nainggolan 6.5

“All in all it was a tough match but it was he who sorted it out with a goal that puts Inter’s hopes of a fightback on hold.”

La Gazzetta dello Sport: Radja Nainggolan 7

“If the stories are right, another little Ninja will soon be ready to come into the world. Well, when he does he’ll meet a father that’s already scored three goals since the half-way point of the season and is always in the heart of the battle.”

Il Messaggero: Radja Nainggolan 7

“Lacked precision on a couple of occasions when moving out with the ball at his feet and lost the duel with opposite number [Marcelo] Brozovic. Went round in circles for large swathes of the game. Showed great strength to score a late goal to send Roma back into dreamland. It was a flash of lightning in the darkness and an invaluable one at that. The goal that might secure third spot.”

Il Giornale: Radja Nainggolan 6.5

“Never afraid to put his foot in, but his forays forward were missing. In fact, when he did push on he scored the goal that could mean Champions League qualification for Roma.”

La Repubblica: Radja Nainggolan 6.5

“Roared, shouted, scolded and pumped his team-mates up. Slipped in to fire home with his right for 1-1.”
