Palmeiras ratings: who shone and who struggled in Guarani draw | OneFootball

Palmeiras ended the first stage of the Paulista Championship with a 1-1 draw against Guarani at Arena Crefisa Barueri. Flaco López saved Verdão from defeat and was a standout performer. Vitor Roque, on the other hand, despite a night with plenty of offensive action, missed clear goal-scoring chances.

Flaco López scored his fourth goal in the Paulista Championship and heads into the round of 16 fighting for the top scorer title. He was the one who lost the ball that led to Guarani’s goal early in the first half, but redeemed himself later and equalized the match.

Vitor Roque, meanwhile, was unable to play his best football. The number 9 was involved in the game but fell short, missing at least two clear chances to score, and at times held onto the ball for too long.
