Maurício in fine scoring form, closing in on his best season yet | OneFootball

The midfielder Maurício continues to rack up goal contributions and show why he is one of the standout players of the season. With 10 goals and 11 assists, the player has reached 21 direct goal contributions this year, just one away from matching his career-best record, set in 2023, when he finished with 11 goals and 11 assists in 48 matches.

Even with fewer games and an average of just 58 minutes on the field per match, Maurício has demonstrated offensive efficiency. In the last three matches, the number 18 provided four assists, reinforcing his importance in playmaking and the team's offensive build-up.

The technical and tactical evolution of the midfielder has been drawing attention not only for the numbers but also for his consistency. In a competitive squad, Maurício has established himself as a key player, whether coming on in the second half or starting the matches.

And now?

Palmeiras reaches 61 points with the victory. The team remains in the lead, followed by Flamengo with 58 – both with the same 27 matches played. The teams will face each other at Maracanã next Sunday (19th), at 4 PM (Brasília time).
