São Paulo ratings: defence slips, Lucas Ramon off in loss at Vitória | OneFootball

São Paulo did not play well against Vitória and lost 2-0 on Saturday afternoon (11), in the 11th round of the Brasileirão, in a match in Salvador (BA). Full-back Lucas Ramon was sent off early in the second half, when Tricolor was already behind, making things even worse for the team. The defense made mistakes on both goals, and the attack was ineffective at Barradão. See the ratings and evaluations:

Rafael – 5.0 – Kept the team alive with a good save, in a play that was later ruled out for a questionable offside. Right after halftime, he made a comfortable save on a shot from the Bahia side and a few others without much danger in the second half. Not at fault for the goals conceded.

DISAPPOINTMENT: Lucas Ramon – 3.5 – Had a quiet first half, with little involvement in attack. In the 8th minute of the second half, he raised his foot too high and struck the opponent in the face, earning a red card.

Alan Franco – 4.5 – Hesitated by allowing Kayzer to get in behind, but was saved by the offside call. He complained to Marcos Antônio about the play. Later, he just watched during the collective defensive mistake on the goal conceded. Improved in the second half, recovering a few balls.

Rafael Toloi – 5.0 – A first half without any major mistakes, with some good defensive actions. Kept up a steady performance in the second half. Picked up a yellow card late in the game, which suspends him for Tricolor’s next match.

Enzo Diaz – 5.5 – Returned to the starting spot at left-back. Very good defensively and active in attack, always offering an option down the flank. Had a decent game and was replaced by Wendell in the 20th minute of the second half.

Danielzinho – 5.0 – With Bobadilla absent, he remained in Roger’s starting lineup. Moved around a lot and misplaced only two passes in the first half, but did not stand out much. Defensively he did well, winning the ball back and coming out on top in duels. Still did not stand out in the final stage and was replaced by Lucca late on.

Marcos Antônio – 5.75 – Tried a dangerous long-range shot in the 16th minute, toward the corner, which the goalkeeper saved. Was booked for a hard foul in the first half. He had the most touches in the first half, also with only two misplaced passes, and was solid defensively. Tried again from outside the box early in the second half, but missed. He did not hide and practically played alone in midfield.

Cauly – 4.5 – Moved well, but did not have a great first half, seeing little of the ball. Finally delivered a cross to André Silva early in the second half, when he was more involved in the game. However, he was taken off for Cédric after Lucas Ramon’s red card.

Ferreirinha – 5.5 – Showed up often on the left, completed a few dribbles, but did not stand out in the opening half. Pressed well, recovering some balls. Two minutes into the second half, he went between two defenders and shot from distance, with a deflection off the defense. He was replaced by Tetê in the 11th minute of the second half.

Artur – 5.75 – Just 2 minutes into the game, he had Tricolor’s first shot, a placed effort that was saved by the goalkeeper. Produced a brilliant individual move in the 44th minute, beating his marker and hitting a low shot. The goalkeeper got a foot to it, but the referee did not award a corner. Despite limited involvement, he was the most dangerous player in the first half. However, he faded after the break.

André Silva – 4.5 – Did poorly marking Cacá, who scored Vitória’s goal. Finally appeared in attack with a low shot at the end of the first half, which the goalkeeper saved. Early in the second half, he headed the ball straight at the center of the goal. Anonymous once again, he was replaced late on by Tapia.

Cédric – 4.5 – After Ramon’s sending-off, he came on for Cauly early in the second half to restore Tricolor’s defense. Did what he always does: nothing, and he also made a mistake on the second goal.

Tetê – 5.0 – Replaced Ferreirinha in the 11th minute of the second half and made an immediate impact. But he could not find solutions to break through the opposing defense.

Wendell – 5.5 – Came on for Enzo Díaz in the 20th minute of the second half. Made a good move by dribbling and shooting from distance, but without much power.

Tapia – 5.0 – Came on in the 20th minute of the second half for the ineffective André Silva. He also could not do much.

Lucca – No rating – Came on in the 32nd minute, replacing Danielzinho.

Roger Machado – 4.5 – Had many injury absences for the match. He saw the team put in an uninspired first half and fall behind 1-0. With Lucas Ramon sent off early in the second half, he made two changes. Shortly after, he made two more and tried one last roll of the dice with Lucca near the end, but was beaten away from home.
