Output in context · U. Catolica finished 2nd of 16 · a title-challenging side
1.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 16) 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 54.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.59 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
