Fluminense Secures Narrow Victory Over Bragantino with Kaua Elías’ Goal, Kevin Serna Impresses in First Start

by time news

With a goal from Kaua Elías, Fluminense defeated Bragantino 1-0 at the Nabi Abi Chedid Stadium, in the 20th round of the Brasileirao. This match was marked as the first for Kevin Serna as a starter in the team coached by Brazilian coach Mano Menezes.

After his good debut against Palmeiras, Serna was placed as a starter in place of Marqunhos. A bet by coach Menezes considering the tough away match ahead.

The former Alianza Lima player caused damage on the left wing and on more than one occasion was close to scoring, especially in the 36th minute of the first half, where after an assist from Kaua Elías he was just inches away from scoring his first goal with ‘Flu’.

The Colombian nationalized Peruvian executed a volley in the Bragantino area, and when the ball was already entering the net, goalkeeper Lucao made an incredible save that prevented the goal by Serna, who is going through a good moment in his incorporation into the reigning Copa Libertadores champion.
