AC Milan rose to third place in Serie A 1-0 Roma. Maignan made 7 saves + points and was elected the best in the team.

The 10th round of Serie A ushered in a strong dialogue, AC Milan faced Roma at home. The battle was very close. Milan defeated Roma 1-0 at home with Leo's assist Pavlovich's goal, rising to third place in the Serie A standings, sharing the same points with second-placed Inter Milan and fourth-placed Roma.

In this campaign, AC Milan had no advantage at home against Roma. Milan's ball possession rate was only 37%, and its shot ratio was 17-20. The biggest contributor to Milan's victory was the team's French goalkeeper Maignan. He made 7 saves in this campaign, and even saved a penalty kick from Roma's Argentinian attacker Dybala in the 82nd minute of the game. Maignan directly saved Dybala's penalty kick and Roma did not even get a chance to make a supplementary shot. After the game, Maignan scored a game-high 8.2 points. The second-highest score was 8.1 points by Modric, a living fossil in football and a 40-year-old who has never been confused. Maignan was also elected the best player in the AC Milan 1-0 Roma team!

Fans joked that Maignan won the best player in the team, and Fofana had at least 70% of the credit. The poor performance of Milan midfielder Fofana, who started and played the whole game in this campaign, is really hard to describe. He missed 2 good opportunities on the offensive end. One of the old ladies who could also score in the series was squandered by him. Fofana, as Milan's starting midfielder and played the entire game, only touched the ball 28 times. In sharp contrast, veteran Modric touched the ball 61 times, more than twice as many times as Fofana. Fofana was also in a mess on the defensive end, with 0 clearances and 0 interceptions, 4 fouls, and only 2 successes in 8 ground confrontations. The only thing he produced was 3 steals. However, he not only sent free kicks but also sent penalty kicks. Fortunately, Maignan bravely saved Dybala's penalty kick. After the game, Fofana received Milan's lowest score of 5.7 points. Even including Roma, it was the second-lowest score among players in this campaign, only higher than the 5.6 points of Dybala who missed the penalty kick.
