São Paulo ratings: Cauly shines with goal and skill in the win | OneFootball

São Paulo did not have a great match on Wednesday night (25) against Coritiba, playing with an almost entirely reserve team, but won 1-0 with a penalty goal by Cauly, to secure three more points in the Brasileirão. The midfielder, who played his first game as a starter for Tricolor, managed the team's midfield well and converted the penalty that gave the victory to the Morumbi team away from home. See the ratings and evaluations:

Rafael – 5.5 – Did not have to make any saves in the first half. Made a good intervention in the second half by punching the ball away and then catching the rebound shot well.

Alan Franco – 5.75 – One of the few starters on the field, performed well in the 1st half, winning all duels on the right side of the defense. Received a yellow card for a foul in the second half. A secure match from the Argentine.

Arboleda – 5.5 – Did not have much work in the first half, but was secure when needed. In the second half, he was more required and cleared good balls in defense.

Rafael Toloi – 6.0 – Stole a good ball and set up a dangerous counterattack for Tricolor at 20 minutes. Was the best in defense in the first half, though he had some work. Almost scored with a header after a corner kick in the second half. A very secure match from the veteran.

Maik – 5.0 – Did not have a good first half, lacking effectiveness and presence in attack. In defense, recovered three balls. Did not improve much in the second half.

Pablo Maia – 5.5 – A reasonable first half from the midfielder, without compromising. A regular match, with few passing errors. Substituted at the end of the second half.

Djhordney – 5.5 – The young player from Cotia made his debut for Tricolor. Was not bad in ball distribution and also in midfield marking, but without great brilliance. Received a yellow card for a tackle at the end of the first half and did not return after the interval, replaced by starter Marcos Antônio.

BEST OF THE MATCH: Cauly – 7.0 – Started as a starter for the 1st time. Switched the play well a few times and made some dribbles in the first half. Alert, stole the ball in attack and served Ferreirinha, who was stopped by the goalkeeper's defense. Called the game, but lacked someone to combine plays with, in a first half without much highlight. Delivered a great corner kick at the start of the second half, to Toloi's head. Took responsibility for the penalty kick and struck it hard. The goalkeeper still touched the ball, but the midfielder scored his first goal for the team. Almost scored another afterward. Best on the field, was substituted by Bobadilla at the end.

Wendell – 5.0 – Recovered an important ball in a rival counterattack at the start of the game. Attempted a shot that went very high at 30’. Missed all four crosses he attempted and was poor in marking in the 1st half. A weak game from the full-back, justifying why he is a reserve.

Ferreirinha – 5.5 – Delivered the first really dangerous shot, from a good steal by the Tricolor attack at the end of the 1st half. Managed some dribbles, but they resulted in nothing. Continued without impressing and was replaced by Lucas at the end.

DISAPPOINTMENT: Tapia – 4.5 – Fought for some aerial balls, without success. No highlight in the first half. Contested another aerial ball already in the second half and suffered a penalty when hit by the goalkeeper. With his ‘mission’ accomplished, was substituted by Calleri in the final minutes, after a weak performance.

Marcos Antônio – 5.75 – Entered at the start of the second half, replacing the young Djhordney. Provided better passing quality in the Tricolor midfield and stole good balls.

Lucas – No rating – Came on for Ferreirinha at the start of the second half. Touched the ball very little.

Calleri – No rating – Replaced the lackluster Tapia at 18’ of the second half. Hardly appeared.

Luan – No rating – The midfielder replaced Pablo Maia at 29’ minutes of the second half.

Bobadilla – No rating – The Paraguayan came on in the final minutes of the away victory.

Hernán Crespo – 6.0 – Rested the starters thinking about the derby and saw the team have a very weak first half, almost without creating chances. ‘Appealed’ to bring on Marcos Antônio at the start of the second half, in place of the debutant Djhordney. Later introduced Lucas and Calleri to secure the away victory.
