Output in context · Boca Juniors finished 1st of 15 · a title-challenging side
4.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 23 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 15) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.74 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
