And significant absences The São Paulo medical service has been in difficulties since last year. Until the duel against Atlético-MG, last weekend, six players were absent – “not much”, if we compare it to other moments of the season in which the team lost practically an entire team due to absences. Among these athletes, some names have made a difference, and Gabriel Neves is perhaps the best example. The Uruguayan had an excellent campaign, being effective both in marking and in creating and stabilizing the team's midfield. However, the player broke a rib in the duel against Palmeiras, in the Copa do Brasil, which ruled him out of Tricolor's last six matches. Analyzing the results and performances since the last match in the classic, the difference in midfield becomes clear. > Sequences of difficult games In fact, São Paulo has been experiencing intense sequences of games recently. In the last month, decisions practically followed one another. In addition to qualifying for the round of 16 of the Copa Sudamericana, he faced the classics against Palmeiras in the Copa do Brasil, the first match against San Lorenzo and the first match against Corinthians. All of this happened in just over a month. In addition to these decisive matches, the Brazilian Championship continued to unfold – and São Paulo was fighting to maintain a good position. The physical load is important and the mental tension is also important, mainly because many of these matches were fundamental to Tricolor's season. > Lack of creativity In recent matches, São Paulo has behaved in a way that draws attention. We can even consider that São Paulo has become a “touch-and-go” team, with numerous exchanges of passes and possession of the ball, but without actually creating scoring opportunities. In the last five games, the team scored just two goals (against Cuiabá and Corinthians) and was leaked seven times. Important names in attack and artillery positions, such as Calleri, also did not appear much. With nine goals this season, the last time the number 9 scored was against Santos, in the classic played on July 16th, at Morumbi. > Away games With record attendance for the season, São Paulo played away from home three times in the aforementioned sequence. This year, Tricolor has already played 22 times away from Morumbi. In these 22 games, they recorded nine wins, six draws and seven defeats. However, they suffered three consecutive defeats. In the coming weeks, São Paulo will still not have a significant sequence of home games. After the match against San Lorenzo this Thursday (8), at Morumbi, the team travels on Saturday (12), in the afternoon, to Rio de Janeiro – where they will face Flamengo in the Brasileirão. > Mental exhaustion after decisive games? As evidenced by the previous topics, the last month in São Paulo was not easy. In addition to playing in three competitions and facing several games away from home, decisions have not been easy, not even against easy opponents. São Paulo was “lucky” to win two decisive classics in the same competition – and there is still a return game against Corinthians, scheduled for the 16th of this month.
