First time
After 3 minutes, Nacional came into danger for the first time with an overflow to the left by Cándido and a center that Gigliotti headed outside.
Nacional was closer to the rival goal and a free kick by Franco Fagúndez at 17 brought him closer to the goal. Marichal also had it on the rebound.
But time and time again Ronaldo saved the goal with a remarkable double intervention.
The goalkeeper was left lying on the floor after preventing the fall of his bow and the game was stopped for five minutes. Instead Renan Santos at 21.
Nacional’s worst moment to date occurred in the 23rd minute, when Luiz Fernando received a perfect cross in the heart of the large area and between two defenders, with a header, he sent the ball into the back of the net.
At 38′, after a short corner, Cándido took a furious shot that Renán deflected in a great intervention to another corner kick.
At 45’+2′. Zabala tried a dangerous shot from outside the area.
