Matchday 17 Recap: Ilicic Puts in a Performance for the Ages

Josip Ilicic. That is the article! He was so divine and thoroughly dominated the Benevento defensive line that all you can do is drop your jaw. Everyone else was as well. Goal.com, Sofascore, and Whoscored gave Ilicic a 10/10 performance. A goal, a post hit, 2 assists, countless nutmegs, and a slew of killer balls – in the rain nonetheless – I just don’t know what else to say. He was that good!

He’s shut up the critics and then some, and on his day can be the best attacking player in Serie A. After straight games of quality from the King of Slovenia, let’s hope his wizardry continues on in 2021! Josip Ilicic, that is all!

The goal that was coming for ages
Just noticed that those are some spicy blue boots, or his blue suede shoes you may say?
That’s where we’re going boys
