In terms of results (not need necessarily quality of play), I give the following grades for this match day: -US grading system because I just got citizenship recently-
Argentina: B - Expected win
Brasil: D (possibly F) - Tie at home against Venezuela is essentially a loss for Brasil
Colombia: C - Very winnable match, should’ve put the match away multiple times.
Uruguay: B - stole a point in a match where they struggled. Getting a point in Colombia is never a bad result. Despite the struggle, it maybe was the justified result given the handball goal for Colombia.
Chile: A - Needed 3 points in a home match against a beatable opponent and got it done. Also, it’s a clásico.
Venezuela: A - Historic result in Brasil
Ecuador: A - Despite subpar quality, 3 points at altitude is always an excellent result.
Paraguay: C - Although a loss was expected, they never seemed to threaten. Must win at home vs Bolivia on Tuesday.
Peru: D - Lost a clásico. Looking like their November window will be extremely important (at Bolivia, vs Venezuela).
Bolivia: F - Lost at home against an unusually poor Ecuadorian side. Failed to take advantage of the uncharacteristic performance by Ecuador. Didn’t even salvage a point.
