Forwards receive lowest marks as Corinthians suffer 1-0 home loss to Santos | OneFootball

Corinthians lost 1-0 to Santos at the Neo Química Arena in the Brasileirão, a flat display that drew protests. Forwards received the harshest marks in fan ratings.

According to Meu Timao, in the Notas da Torcida vote, Dieguinho was rated the worst starter, averaging 0.7 from 763 ballots after 77 minutes on the pitch.

Allan and Rodrigo Garro followed on 0.9. Memphis Depay averaged 1.6, with Kaio César and Raniele on 1.7 and Gabriel Paulista on 1.8.

Among the starters, Matheus Bidu led with 2.9 from 762 votes. He was the main outlet on the left but chose poorly in the final third and missed rare chances, while Gustavo Henrique scored 2.7 and both Matheuzinho and Hugo Souza 2.3.

All three substitutes entered after the interval, with Pedro Raul the lowest at 0.6. On at 19 minutes of the second half for Raniele, he slipped when controlling a Garro pass and squandered a clear opening, while Gui Negão received 0.7 and Matheus Pereira 0.9.

Head coach Fernando Diniz was given 1.1 despite nine absences. Referee Wilton Pereira Sampaio received 0.9 from 682 voters, criticised for inconsistency and for awarding 25 fouls.

The result kept Corinthians 10th and denied them ground on the 2027 Libertadores places. They host Chapecoense next Sunday at 19:30 in the 26th round.
