My player ratings:
Buffon - Didn't have any real saves to make except for one on Gilardino. Gigi mishandled one ball, but that didn't cost us so... 6
Ferrara - Like Buffon, didn't have much to do. 6
Iuliano - Dealt with the few threats that Parma provided very well. He needs to see more playing time. 6.5
Montero - Montero is too inconsistent for me, as he did well on a few occasions but the absolute opposite on others. To add to that, his passing is poor, and very predictable. 5.5
Birindelli - A very honest shift in the absence of Lilian Thuram. Did well to restrict any promising attacks down the Parma left and went forward with equal efficiency. 6.5
Maresca - Another top quality performance from the young 23-year-old. Enzo bossed the midfield well with Tacchinardi at his side, and supplied good assists for Miccoli and Del Piero. 7
Tacchinardi - Solid in the centre of midfield. Looks really good when partnered by Maresca. 6.5
Zambrotta - Not so good in the first half, but much better in the second. Linked up well with Nedved, Miccoli, and Del Piero when he came on. 6
Nedved - Pavel wasn't in full flight against Inter and Lazio, but bounced back today despite suffering from a bout of the flu. His world-class assist for Fabrizio Miccoli's first goal and has goal should ensure that he wins the Balon d'Or IMO. 7
Miccoli - Excellent performance. Two chances in the first half, two great goals. Miccoli is intent on getting more playing time, and his efforts today can do his cause no wrong. 7
Di Vaio - Disappointing is all I have to say. 5.5
Zalayeta didn't do much, Del Piero scored a nice goal and did well to set up Nedved, and Conte made a five minute appearance.
