Manuel Locatelli (CM) – 5.5/10 – Once again, Locatelli wasn’t able to facilitate Juventus control as Torino’s man-oriented press suffocated the Bianconeri. The Italian was marked out of the contest by Tommaso Pobega in the build-up phase which meant his influence in possession was limited. Brekalo also ran off the Italian on occasions.

Denis Zakaria (CM) – 7/10 – Zakaria wasn’t heavily involved but the majority of his actions were executed with the highest quality. His weight of pass is divine, and those driving runs are something to behold. Also played an astute role defensively in screening Brekalo.

Adrien Rabiot (CM) – 5/10 – The Frenchman came close to opening the scoring but his left-footed effort dragged wide following an impressive burst in behind. Otherwise, Rabiot struggled for the most part with his contribution in defence minimal and attack forgettable.
