"Rafael Leao once again showed his match-winning capabilities for AC Milan in their huge victory against Roma, and he is now the leader of this team. As La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) write, Leao can be a strange player to watch on the field. Sometimes he seems detached when he's actually involved, it seems like everything could slide past him, but he absorbs everything with a smile, like a coiled spring ready to leap into action."
"He was smiling two nights ago, when he outpaced Evan N'Dicka and provided the assist for the winning goal. It is a moment that Milan chose to replay on social media in slow motion, so that Rossoneri fans could fully appreciate it. Leao was also genuinely smiling when he returned from the pitch to find the entire dressing room applauding him. Everyone was standing for him and Mike Maignan, who had lingered on the San Siro pitch for the customary post-match interviews."
Rafael Leao delivered a decisive assist that helped AC Milan secure a big victory over Roma and has emerged as a leader within the squad. He frequently appears detached on the pitch while remaining highly involved, absorbing play calmly before unleashing explosive actions. Leao outpaced Evan N'Dicka to create the winning goal, a sequence Milan replayed on social media in slow motion. He returned to the dressing room to a standing ovation alongside Mike Maignan, reflecting team recognition. Leao and Maignan earned man-of-the-match honours for their respective contributions. Leao combines remaining potential with veteran status as one of the longest-tenured players.
