Vasco ratings: Piton, Gómez, Adson and Tchê Tchê judged worst in Fluminense defeat | OneFootball

Vasco fell to Fluminense at the Maracanã in the 26th round, with Piton, Gómez, Adson and Tchê Tchê rated the poorest, while Santiago Sosa stood out despite a late miss.

According to Globo.com, Vasco were on top in the first half, Paulo Henrique twice exploiting Renê’s flank, and Ignácio cut out a chance that looked bound for goal. The full-back was booked for kicking the ball towards the Fluminense bench.

After the break, Tchê Tchê wasted a promising counter by holding on too long and misplacing his pass, and soon after Fluminense went ahead. Piton failed to track Lucho Acosta for the goal, and his crossing and finishing also lacked precision.

Léo Jardim kept Vasco in it with one-on-one stops from Hulk and Serna, and he was not at fault for Acosta’s strike. Robert Renan later allowed Hulk a clear run, and he and Carlos Cuesta struggled in duels.

Late on, Puma Rodríguez released Sosa, but the Argentine scuffed what could have been the equaliser. Marino Hinestroza then crossed for Andrés Gómez, only for a mix-up with Spinelli to spoil the opening, and Spinelli later saw a shot blocked.

Pedro Emanuel’s side tired and the substitutions did not work, particularly Adson who was involved before the goal, felt pain after a sprint and went off. Thiago Mendes looked short physically, and debutant Bruno Duarte struggled for touch and understanding before being replaced. Colidio had a quiet night.
