Twente only got 5 shots away and the only one on target was the goal, on which he didn’t have any chance. His pinpoint pass to Biraghi from a goal kick set up the second goal and he was completely unremarkable otherwise, given that he had nothing to do. Don’t sleep on his role in the second goal, either; to control that pass, turn, and ping a perfect ball over the top isn’t easy. Didn’t do much in possession and showed little guile on the ball, though, and seemed to contribute to the frantic nature of the second half. The second half is a problem for this team.
