Two assists in the most important game of the Rossoneri's Scudetto winning season. An extraordinary performance to round off a season in which he has surpassed all expectations, not only with goals (fourteen in total) but also the countless solo runs and his magic with the ball at feet. These were exactly what we saw in Reggio Emilia when he played his part in the goals that gave the Rossoneri a resounding 3-0 victory and brought the Scudetto back to AC Milan. Rafael Leão, was simply unstoppable. His performance at the Mapei steamrolled Sassuolo and sent our fans crazy. For the umpteenth time, they voted him as the best player on the pitch with 78% of the vote.
In the ninety-two minutes played, Leão also amassed twenty forward passes, five chances created and five balls recovered, two shots on target and two shots saved, one shot blocked as well as one cross. So much to discuss! His stats underline his value, priceless. He could not miss the final fixture of the year, with everything riding on it and having always been leading from the front. A Jewel in the Rossoneri crown, just like having extra player out there on the pitch and a key figure in the squad. Well done, Rafa, we gooo!
