Rabiot, the "soul" of Milan, "sets fire" to the Italian

Milan secured a spectacular 3-2 win against Torino on Monday, and all eyes are on Adrien Rabiot, whose performance has been deemed crucial by the Italian press.

Being 2-0 down after goals from Nikola Vlašić (penalty) and Duvan Zapata, Milan found an answer in the French midfielder.

Rabiot scored his first goal in the red and black jersey with a low shot from outside the area, reviving his team and silencing the critics who had been monitoring his recent performances.

La Gazzetta dello Sport is full of praise, with the Frenchman receiving a 7.5 rating and described as the "leader and soul" of the team, capable of lifting the Rossoneri in difficult times. Milanpress echoes this sentiment, also giving Rabiot a 7.5 rating.

"A shot into the top corner to restart the match and score his first goal for Milan. Rabiot thus responds to the undeserved criticism of recent days."

Rabiot pleases the Italian media

Corriere della Sera highlights the importance of the Frenchman in Allegri's system. "Rabiot answers the call: goals are needed from the midfielders and he is rewarded with a lightning strike from 30 meters" (rating 7.5).

For Il Messaggero, Rabiot's goal is the one that completely revives Milan's hopes in the match. "He opens the scoring in the league with a powerful shot with his left foot that surprises the Israeli goalkeeper" (7/10).

Finally, La Stampa highlights the former Juventus player's perseverance. "When all seemed lost, Rabiot stood strong and led Milan. It was his first goal in the Rossoneri shirt and, despite the Israeli help, he was invincible" (7.5).

The Italian press thus praised Rabiot as the unexpected but decisive protagonist of this turnaround. A performance that Didier Deschamps must have appreciated.
