Alessandro Bastoni has won praise for a versatile and effective performance in Inter Milan’s 3-2 Serie A comeback win over Monza.

TuttoMercatoWeb highlight that positive scores that the 25-year-old received in the player ratings for the match in Italian media.

Alessandro Bastoni was in the Inter Milan starting eleven yesterday evening against Monza.

For the second match in a row, the Italian international started on the left flank. He had also played at wingback against Feyenoord in midweek.

This was the result of an injury crisis. With Federico Dimarco and Nicola Zalewski absent, and Carlos Augusto only just coming back, Bastoni had to play as a makeshift wingback.
