Serie A’s fifth round closed with Milan’s 3-0 win over Lecce, but the fantasy football spotlight fell elsewhere: Roma-Inter produced two extraordinary individual returns, with Manu Koné and Lautaro Martinez both reaching a round-leading score of 14 after scoring twice.
Koné’s brace placed him at the heart of the midfield selections, while Lautaro’s two goals made him the standout forward of the weekend. Their performances shaped a 4-4-2 team of the round in Fantacampionato, a lineup marked by decisive contributions at both ends of the pitch.
A goalkeeper’s complete afternoon
Mandas produced the highest score among the goalkeepers, finishing on 11.5. His match rating of 7.5 was strengthened by a clean sheet and, above all, his save from Yeboah’s penalty, earning the additional points that made his return one of the most valuable of the round.
In defence, Jimenez and Bremer each posted a score of 10 after finding the net against Napoli and Atalanta respectively. Pavlovic and Nuno Tavares completed the back four, both collecting eight points through assists.
Behind Koné in midfield, Christian Pulisic finished on 10.5, while Adrien Rabiot and Mattia Zaccagni each reached 10. All three benefited from goals in the fixtures involving Milan and Lecce, and Venezia and Lazio.
Lautaro was joined in attack by Gustavo Varela, who collected 13 points after scoring twice against Sassuolo. It was a round in which goalkeepers could turn a match with one save, defenders stepped forward in the decisive moments and the league’s attacking names supplied the numbers that defined the weekend.
