Rafael Leao's performance was underwhelming in the 45 minutes he played: the Portuguese had limited offensive opportunities and lost many balls. Employed for 45 minutes, Leao struggled to find decisive opportunities in the last thirty meters. The data from his game reflects a limited push: one shot attempted (and immediately rejected), 0 key passes and no crosses scored, with 25 total touches and a passing accuracy of 91% (10 out of 11). Leao tried to make a personal play but was unsuccessful, closing with 0 successful dribbles out of 2 attempts and recording 8 lost balls and 3 failed touches. In terms of maneuver development, he totaled 84.2 meters of ball transport and 2 progressive transports. In the phase of non-possession and physical duels, there were 3 defensive contributions, 3 ball recoveries and 3 ground duels won out of 9, numbers that confirm a complicated evening and far from the best rhythms in view of the official start of the season.

Few offensive opportunities and too many lost balls
