ARSENAL
Leno 7 – With the miracle of Jorginho’s penalty in injury time, he denies further suffering to Arsenal in a match dominated by almost everyone.
Holding 6.5 – After a rather timid start, he grows noticeably with excellent defensive closings.
Pablo Marì 6 – Giant in the duel with the opposing attackers, and then restart the action with a decent quality. Naive in the final, with the lack of a penalty against Mount.
Tierney 6.5 – He starts from the center left and then pushes himself forward several times, like when he passes James in the area and receives the penalty.
Bellerin 6 – Their frequent forays into the right lane often ended with inviting the crosswalks to receive tips.
The Neny 5.5 – Among the most in the shadows of the Arteta team. Too many loose balls in the middle of the field, not always fully exploited by opposing players. His unfortunate career comes to a head with the crossbar that could have made it 4-0.
Xhaka 7 – Solitaire quality in the nerve center of the field. With a calibrated launch, Tierney draws on the occasion of the penalty, then having the merit of doubling down with a masterful punishment.
Saka 7 – He always keeps the opposing defense apprehensive and, in the second half, makes it 3-0 with a poisonous cross shot that surprises Mendy.
Smith Rowe 6 – In the first half he has an excellent opportunity, but the ball served in the area by Bellerin fails sensationally. However, he is busy offensively. (From 65 ‘ Willock 6 – Some ideas, in a final in which Arsenal continue to attack despite the comfortable advantage)
Lacazette 6.5 – In a match in which he does not stand out in number of occasions, he unlocks the result showing a great coldness from eleven meters. (From 93 ‘ Mustafi sv)
Martinelli 6.5 – Among the most active in the offensive phase, he does not decrease his level of danger until he is replaced. (From 71 ‘ Grandpa sv)
CHELSEA
Mendy 6 – On the occasion of Arsenal’s two goals he has very little responsibility, while with Saka’s 3-0 he is out of position. Some good stops in the end.
Santiago 4.5 – He suffers tremendously in the confrontation with Martinelli and Tierney, knocking out the Gunners defense on the occasion of the 1-0 penalty.
Zouma 5.5 – When the balls reach the area, he sweeps them punctually without paying much attention to aesthetics. Less positive in the second half of the game.
T.Silva 6.5 – In the duel with Lacazette he often comes out the victor, anticipating him in the passing game. Also in evidence with his danger in set pieces.
Chilwell 5 – Little nudge to the left from the side, which doesn’t even stand out in terms of containment.
Kanté 5.5 – His overwhelming physique translates more into fouls on the edge of the area – like the one that leads to a 2-0 penalty – than in balls recovered. (From 74 ‘ Havertz sv)
Kovacic 5.5 – A few tears from the Croatian, protagonist of better performances. (From 46 ‘ Jorginho 5 – Colorless recovery, adorned in negative with disk error)
Mount 6.5 – Among the few who try to create goals, both at fault and with shots from outside the area. In the final the penalty is won that Jorginho later missed.
Pulisic 5.5 – It is practically never seen in the last meters, neither in shots on goal nor in passes for teammates. A little more after the break.
Abraham 6 – It is best to deactivate it by opposing defenders, who limit their turnovers in front of the goal to a minimum. In the final he scores the goal of hope.
Werner 5.5 – The least negative of the offensive trident with the blue jersey in the first half, with some ideas starting from the left. (From 46 ‘ Hudson-Odoi 6 – Good impact on the game, with different actions and with the assist for Abraham’s goal)
