Fans criticized (often rightly so). The performance at the beginning was below the one responsible for convincing Palmeiras to invest more than R $ 20 million. However, after the first part of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores, Ron is the most decisive player in the tournament.
According to official Conmebol statistics, Ron participated directly in nine goals for Palmeiras in the competition. There are three goals and six assists in the most important tournament on the South American calendar after another good performance in the 3-1 victory over Delfín, this Wednesday, in Ecuador.
Among the athletes still active in the event, the advantage is comfortable.
Behind Rony comes Julián Álvarez, from River Plate, who scored five goals and gave two assists in the competition. The forward was on the field on Tuesday, entering the second half in a 1-1 draw with Atlético.

The third place in this ranking is divided between two names: midfielder Nacho Fernández, who scored three goals and gave three assists (6 points) in the River Plate tournament, and Rodney Redes, from Guaraní-PAR, with the same retrospective of the Argentine star.
However, the Nets can increase the numbers and get closer to Ron on Thursday. The Paraguayan national team player enters the field against Grêmio, in Asunción, also for the round of 16.
Ron remains with the decisive role in the tournament also within Palmeiras. Two teammates appear just behind, with less than half of the 11th appearances involved in the three goals scored against Delfín on Wednesday.

The forward scored once and gave two passes to goals in the match, responsible for bringing Palmeiras closer to the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores de América.
Left-back Matías Viña, who has been absent in Ecuador, once rocked rival nets and made three passes for goals in South American competition. The performance ends up being the same as that of Wesley, who had been a standout in the tournament, but underwent surgery and no longer enters the court in this edition.
