Manuel Locatelli (CM) – 8.5/10 – Locatelli was the spark that ignited a thrilling comeback. After being pushed further forward following the introduction of Arthur Melo, the Italian halved Roma’s 3-1 advantage with a clinical header. The versatile midfielder showed his class during the second half of this one.

Rodrigo Bentancur (CM) – 4.5/10 – An unspectacular showing from Bentancur. He struggled in possession and failed to have an impact without the ball (as he usually does). Juve were much-improved after he was brought off.

Weston McKennie (CM) – 7/10 – The American was typically bright in the first half, and he played a hand in Juve’s remarkable resurgence. While he didn’t get himself on the scoresheet or register an assist, McKennie’s exuberance from midfield aided their turnaround in the second period.
