Corinthians ratings: no one comes out well in defeat to Flu | OneFootball

Corinthians disappointed and were beaten by Fluminense 3-1 last Wednesday at the Maracanã in the Brazilian Championship. No one stood out on a night of a very poor collective performance by the team in Rio de Janeiro.

In defense, the worst performer was center-back Gabriel Paulista. He mistimed a challenge on Flu’s first goal and failed to recover on the goal scored by Hércules late in the first half.

The system with five midfielders also did not work. Defensive midfielder Allan was sent off for an obscene gesture and hurt the team’s performance. Charles and Rodrigo Garro were ineffective, while Breno Bidon misplayed a backheel at the start of the move that ended with John Kennedy’s goal.

Youngster André scored the team’s only goal, but did not have a good game. Striker Yuri Alberto barely received the ball and was quiet. Attacking midfielder Jesse Lingard showed good movement on his debut, but missed a clear scoring chance.
