Thiago Neves commits a serious foul, generates a counterattack goal in the defeat of Sport and becomes a target in the networks | sport

Thiago Neves came to Sport to become a benchmark in the team, but he had a night to forget, last Monday, at the Ilha do Retiro. Ineffective in the offensive sector, the offensive midfielder still failed to take a free kick that led to the Atlético-GO goal and became the target of ridicule on social media. Not surprisingly, it has become one of the most talked about topics in Brazil.

Rubro-negro was defeated 1-0 by Dragão and fell to 15th place in Serie A, with 25 points.

Even without a great performance from Leão, Thiago Neves at least qualified on dead balls. But this time, even this didn’t help. At 15 minutes into the second half, he committed a serious foul towards the Atlético-GO area and Zé Roberto took the counterattack that made Janderson throw the nets to guarantee victory for the visitors. Social networks, as always, did not forgive.

But Thiago Neves’ problems did not stop there. Before being substituted in the second half, he still left the field with little creativity in attack and many false passes.

Of the 38 times he touched the ball, he missed nine, being the third athlete who missed the most in Sport, behind Patric and Sander, who failed at 11 and 10 each. The difference is that the full-backs made, respectively, 15 and 25 more passes than the attacking midfielder throughout the game.

Throughout the game Thiago Neves made three presentations, but none of the attempts really offered danger to Atlético-GO. At nine minutes, for example, he had a kick inside the blocked area after a cross from Patric. At 39, he finished from outside the outside area, and at 12 of the second half, he had a free kick blocked by the opposing defense.

At 35, Thiago Neves reached his eleventh game with Sport, with one goal and two assists. He has been in three games without shaking the net, since he last scored in the 1-0 win over Atlético.
