Boca and another draw that worries. Úbeda’s team played another poor match, drew with the newly promoted side, has now gone four games without a win in the local tournament, and once again left the field to boos.
Below, the analysis of individual performances and ratings for the Xeneize in the 1-1 draw:
Didn’t have many interventions aside from an early mistake by his teammates and the visitor’s goal.
Struggled a lot defensively and had little impact going forward. Had a clear chance but chose to pass it back.
Didn’t face too many complications and dared to push forward a bit. Created some chances with his headers.
Unlike his partner, he suffered more defensively and struggled in battles with Gimnasia’s forwards.
One of the attacking outlets for the Xeneize. Once again caused a lot of danger with his runs, delivering the cross that led to Merentiel’s goal. He also assisted Bareiro on the goal that was disallowed.
Still hasn’t found his place in the team, occupying a role that doesn’t contribute to the team’s play and struggling to connect with Weigandt. His replacement showed more in less time.
Took on the role of central midfielder in Paredes’ absence, and while he wasn’t bad at recovering the ball, he unnecessarily carried the ball too much due to a lack of creativity in midfield.
Still hasn’t managed to be part of a midfield that brings out his qualities. The lack of creativity limits him to a simple central midfielder who has yet to showcase the abilities he showed at Pincha.
The Beast scored again and played an acceptable match in a role that never really suited him. Played simply, didn’t complicate things, and tried to create danger, although he wasn’t as influential in the final stretch of the match.
Good debut at La Bombonera, fought hard, controlled the ball well, and scored a great header that was disallowed.
Settled in the starting eleven, he had another inconsistent game, with some interesting connections with Blanco, mistakes like the pass to Merentiel in the first half, and moments where he was not involved in the match.
Changed the team and brought creativity to a static midfield. Paredes with his control of the tempo and Aranda with his dribbling were the Xeneize’s weapons to try to go for all three points.
Came on to give the team a breath of fresh air but didn’t manage to stand out much.
Repeated the formation and a midfield that never worked for him. His team played poorly again, was almost saved by the youngsters once more, and added another winless match to extend the negative streak in the local tournament. Once again, he left the stadium to whistles from the entire crowd, and although his job isn’t in doubt, it seems difficult, given his decisions, that he can turn around the poor form the team has shown this year.
