FIRST TIME
Fluminense created the first big chance of danger in the 5th minute. André turned the game around to Marcelo, who crossed the ball into the area for Renato Augusto to take the first shot and send it over, raising the crowd. Afterwards, Arias took off on the right, invaded the area and rolled into the middle, but the opponent took possession. Tricolor continued to look for the attack and, after arrivals that were not converted into submissions, Arias crossed the ball and sent it across the baseline at 22.
At 30 minutes, Renato Augusto, centrally, looked for the goalkeeper’s right corner and the ball went close to the post. At 36, with a free kick, Marcelo knocked paint off the crossbar. In stoppage time, Arias took a risk from outside the area and the ball exploded in defense.
SECOND TIME
Fluminense continued to occupy the attacking field at the beginning of the second stage. In the 5th minute, Renato Augusto hit from a distance and the ball exploded onto the crossbar. At 9, Marquinhos crossed into the area and John Kennedy headed the ball without much danger. At 22, Keno passed the defender, invaded the area and hit hard for the goalkeeper to save well. Three minutes later, Marcelo and Keno scored and created a great opportunity, which ended with the full-back finishing off the post.
In the 27th minute, Keno broke the marking lines with a pass to John Kennedy, who had his shot blocked inside the area.
