Report: First start, first assist – Comotto proves value against Serie A side already

Christian Comotto is spending this season with Spezia in Serie B. However, the AC Milan loanee has impressed at a fitting level.

This week, Milan qualified for the Round of 16, as expected, against Lecce. It is another win for the Rossoneri, with another clean sheet also bagged. Something which can only make Massimiliano Allegri smile.

However, there will have been something else to make the club and the coach smile

Comotto’s quality shown

This week, Spezia also played their Round of 32 game in the Coppa Italia against Serie A side Parma, and whilst they were beaten, the Diavolo will smile. Not because they are out, but interested because they have seen further proof of quality.

Of course, as Milanisti Channel writes, this regards Comotto. The Italian was given his first start of the season by head coach Luca D’Angelo, and he played the full ninety minutes of the game, and didn’t disappoint.

Instead, he got the assist for the equaliser, actually for a former Rossonero in Gianluca Lapadula. It is a sign of his ability to play against this level of opposition already and proof, perhaps, that he should be starting more for Spezia.

Allegri had taken a liking to him this summer, and if he is allowed more chances after this performance, the midfielder could well be in the first team picture when he returns.
