Fluminense goal – Fluminense opened the scoring in the 49th minute of the first half after a great mistake by the Red Bull Bragantino defense. First after a risky exchange of passes in the area that generated a corner for Tricolor. On the charge, Ganso found Lima, who anticipated and headed the ball into the back of the goal.
Bragantino draws – Red Bull Bragantino equalized just a minute into the second half when the short Eduardo Sasha rose above the tricolor defense and scored a header.
Massa Bruta’s turn! – Five minutes later, the São Paulo team turned the ball around, heading again, this time with Thiago Borbas, on the back of Martinelli, who acted as an improvised defender.
Lima again for Flu! – Lima was inspired and decided to score another for Fluminense, this time with a shot from outside the area that deflected off the defense and died in the corner, deceiving the goalkeeper.
