São Paulo was humiliated by Fluminense 6-0 on Thursday night (27) in one of its worst performances in history, during a match in the 36th round of the Brasileirão, at Maracanã. After a penalty early on, Pablo Maia handed over the ball for the second goal and it all went downhill from there. A show of errors and failures from the entire team resulted in a terrible defeat in Rio de Janeiro. See the ratings:

Young – 3.5 – With Rafael suspended, he took the starting position. Faced a penalty to defend just 8 minutes in, but it was well taken. At 42’, he prevented the 4th goal in a one-on-one situation. Suffered from the many defensive errors of the team. In the second half, made another good save. Even though he was the least to blame, he will be remembered for conceding six goals.

Ferraresi – 3.0 – Made some good tackles in the 1st half, but was one of those who missed many passes and was easily dribbled past. His performance declined along with all his teammates.

Luiz Gustavo – 3.5 – Played as a defender today. Tried to calm the team's lackluster start but failed. Sank with the rest.

Alan Franco – 3.0 – Early in the game, tried to dodge the ball, which brushed his arm in the area, and the referee awarded a penalty after a VAR review. Almost gave away another goal at the end of the 1st half. What a decline for the Argentine during the season.

Maik – 3.5 – Many offensive pass errors in the apathetic first half for the team. Was substituted by Crespo at halftime.

DISAPPOINTMENT: Pablo Maia – 2.0 – Made an easy pass error due to inattention in attack, leading to the counterattack for Flu's second goal. Weak in marking as well, left the game at halftime.

Bobadilla – 3.5 – Barely appeared in the first half in Rio. Continued to be invisible and was replaced by Negrucci in the second half.

Marcos Antonio – 4.0 – Another who returned to the starting lineup. The most alert in midfield, trying to create something in the first half. Got worse in the second half and succumbed with the team.

Lucca – 3.5 – The young player gained the position on the depleted left wing. Well-marked, he couldn't create his plays and made some ball control errors. Felt pain at the end and was replaced by Paulinho.

Tapia – 2.5 – Another who barely touched the ball in the first half and was taken off for the 2nd half.

Rigoni – 2.5 – Also had his chance in the team with the offensive absences. Very little effectiveness in the team's dreadful game.

Rafael Toloi – 3.0 – Came in to bolster the defense in the 2nd half. Did not improve anything.

Nicolas – 3.5 – The young player made his professional debut in a tough situation, right at halftime. Showed his skill with a beautiful individual play that ended with a shot over the bar. Despite the team's embarrassment, showed signs he could perform in the future.

Alisson – 3.0 – Also came on right after halftime to try to improve things. Played at the same pace and was weak in the fourth goal conceded.

Negrucci – No rating – Replaced Bobadilla midway through the second half.

Paulinho – No rating – Came off the bench in the final minutes to replace Lucca.

Hernán Crespo – 3.0 – Had 15 absences to deal with when selecting the team. Witnessed one of the worst first halves under his management and made three changes at halftime to try to minimize the embarrassment. It didn’t work, and he suffered a 6-0 thrashing in the last 'decisive' game of the year.
