The game

After a well-played and studied start to the game, the first goal opportunity came in the 11th minute. João Victor recovered the ball on the left, advanced and finished elegantly, but Robson went to the corner and made the save. Nacional’s response came five minutes later, when Rogério received it on the left, cut to the middle and finished in the middle of the goal, where Jonathan Braz slotted in.

At 21, it was Tubarão’s turn to arrive again. In a rehearsed play, Christopher took a low corner and William Daltro finished first, but Robson made the save on the rebound. In the following minutes, the match continued to be more truncated and lacking. Until at 41, João Victor advanced from the left, crossed, the ball went through everyone and came out taking paint off Robson’s post.

After the break, William Salvino was brought down inside the area and the referee signaled a penalty. At seven, Rogério went for the penalty and hit a cross to open the scoring at Colina. However, the blue joy was short-lived. Still in the 12th minute, Hitalo received the ball on the right and crossed for Jonas to head into the goal and leave everything equal.

After the draw, Tubarão got excited and arrived in danger, again, in the 22nd minute, when Hitalo took a free kick straight towards the goal and forced Tom to send it to a corner. Naça’s response came in the next minute with Quadrado, who received it, dominated in the middle, took a risk from outside the area and the ball passed dangerously over Braz’s goal.

At 33, it was Rogério’s turn to receive the ball on the right and trigger Ceará, who turned and finished left-handed, but Jonathan Braz made a great save and prevented Leão’s second goal. And at 52, Ceará dominated inside the area and finished, but the ball exploded onto Braz’s post.
