How was the game
Fortaleza had a great performance in the first half and built an elastic score. It can be said that Fortaleza’s first goal, in the 13th minute, took a long time to arrive, as the Tricolor team pressed from the start. After opening the scoring, the chances multiplied and the Brazilians scored three more times – the fourth goal was disallowed for offside.
Without slowing down, Fortaleza completed the rout at the beginning of the second half. The home team continued on top and scored twice more in the first fifteen minutes of the final stage. After that, the hosts still created some chances, but slowed down, ensuring the victory with ease.
