Grêmio were beaten 1-0 by Vitória at Barradão, extending their winless league run on the road. A Renê header settled it.
Globo.com notes that the ratings highlighted Weverton as a rare positive and underlined issues across the pitch.
Goalkeeper Weverton was not at fault for the finish and later prevented a heavier defeat. Diego Caito forced a first-half save and offered consistent support down the flank.
At the back, Gustavo Martins was effective in duels, especially in the air, while Wallace lost out to Renê for the goal and almost gifted one near the end. Full-back Pedro Gabriel struggled, was booked and withdrawn at the interval.
Caio Paulista replaced him, was cautioned within two minutes, and was involved in the move for Vitória’s goal. In midfield, Noriega drew attention for on-field scuffles and was also booked.
Danilo Barbosa added energy without notable impact, with Villasanti and Nardoni largely ineffective. Krovinovic was involved early, then faded.
Up front, Tetê offered little and in the second half skied an effort into the stands. Carlos Vinícius had a goal correctly ruled out and a first-half chance, but was isolated, while Braithwaite and Pavón were quiet.
Enamorado came on to operate off the right yet scarcely featured. Head coach Luís Castro kept his usual structure despite changes, but the side again failed to look competitive away.
