Output in context · Union Santa Fe finished 2nd of 15 · a title-challenging side
2.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 9 clean sheets across 31 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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
- Availability. On the pitch for 73% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
