São Paulo ratings: Dória and Sabino awful in loss to Fluminense | OneFootball

São Paulo suffered its third straight defeat this Saturday (16) after falling 2-1 to Fluminense due to mistakes by its center-back pairing, made up of Sabino and Dória, who did pull one back in the second half at the Maracanã in the Brasileirão clash. See the ratings and evaluations:

Rafael – 5.0 – He was left exposed on Flu’s goal and didn’t know what to do. In the second half, he made a great save just 7 minutes in on a powerful angled shot.

Lucas Ramon – 5.0 – Returned to the team after injury and nearly scored with a header after a good corner delivery in the 17th minute of the first half. He was solid defensively with some tackles, got forward at times, but misplaced many passes. He came off late for Cédric.

Dória – 3.5 – Couldn’t keep up on the first goal conceded. Then gifted away the second by playing the ball out poorly. A disastrous first half. He made amends in the second half by scoring with a header from a corner.

Sabino – 4.0 – Was far too careless in his marking on Fluminense’s first goal. He made some clearances in the first half, but didn’t play well. He nearly scored with a header in the second half and set it up for Dória to pull one back.

Enzo Diaz – 4.0 – After 12 minutes, he tried a long-range shot, but without much direction. He left defensive gaps and didn’t contribute well in attack in the first half at the Maracanã. He also picked up a needless yellow card in the second half for kicking the ball away with play stopped, which rules him out of the next match.

Bobadilla – 5.5 – Took the team’s first shot right in the opening minute. He hardly misplaced a pass in the first half and recovered some balls. He was also booked in the second half.

Danielzinho – 5.0 – Didn’t offer much support in attack, but was solid defensively. A quiet performance.

Cauly – 4.5 – Had an unremarkable first half. Continued to produce little in the second and was taken off for Ferreirinha in the 18th minute.

Artur – 5.5 – Tried to make things happen down the wing in the first half, but lacked better support. Tried a weak long-range shot early in the second half. Was booked for stopping an opposition counterattack with a foul in the 21st minute. He was the one who tried the most in attack.

Wendell – 4.0 – Was deployed in a more advanced role, with two full-backs on the flank, and was very poor in the first half, misplacing passes and failing to create anything. He was replaced by Luan in the second half.

André Silva – 4.5 – Was given another chance in the team. Largely anonymous in the first half, he was booked for going into a challenge with his foot too high. Only in the 38th minute did he produce a good individual move, dribbling past his marker and curling a shot, but it was far too weak. He was taken off for Tapia in the second half.

Ferreirinha – 5.0 – Came on in the second half for Cauly. Tried a few individual plays down the wing, but couldn’t make anything happen.

Luan – 5.5 – Replaced Wendell in the 31st minute of the second half and nearly scored with his first involvement, pouncing on a loose ball, but Fábio made a spectacular save. He made some clearances.

Tapia – 5.0 – Came on for the ineffective André Silva late in the game and gave the team fresh energy, but not enough.

Cédric – No rating – Came on in the final minutes in place of Lucas Ramón.

Milton Cruz – 4.0 – Once again in interim charge of Tricolor, he set the team up with two full-backs on the left and it failed completely, with two goals conceded already in the first half. He replaced the ineffective Cauly with Ferreirinha in the 18th minute of the second half, got one goal back, but the team couldn’t respond.
