Marco Matias Scout Report
Even at 35, Marco Matias is a figure of vital importance on the left flank for Farense in the Primeira Liga. His ball recovery and retention abilities are still in the top tier of his peers (85% and 84% respectively), an invaluable asset for any team. His offensive potency is evident with notable successful crosses (76%) and goal threat rating (82%). The Portuguese veteran has excelled in providing key assists (74%) and creating chances, despite having a slightly above average performance in carrying the ball forwards (55%) and progressive passing (45%).
However, Matias seems to struggle in terms of goal efficiency (4%), indicating he needs multiple opportunities to score. This is supported by a lower rate of successful dribbles (35%), suggesting difficulty in one-on-one situations or crowded areas. A significant red flag is his pass accuracy per 90 (a disconcerting 11.11%), which will limit his contribution to the team's passing game.
In sum, Matias's strengths lie in his experience and composure in ball retention and his offensive aptitudes. His weaknesses, namely his sub-par goal efficiency and pass accuracy, could be limiting factors in a highly competitive league. At this stage of his career, the balance between his wealth of experience and diminishing physical attributes could be key to his further contribution to Farense's campaign in the Primeira Liga.
