São Paulo performance
The team put the ball on the ground and had more control of the actions. However, there was a bit of audacity to top it off. In defense he also made some mistakes and allowed his rival to arrive.
Red Bull Bragantino performance
Despite being away from home, coach Maurício’s team Barbieri tried to surprise Tricolor. The interior marked the rival in their attack field and made it difficult to get the ball out at the beginning of the confrontation. Then, Bragantino began to give more space to the tricolor. In the second half, the team knew how to take advantage of the mistakes of the homeowners. However, the defense sucked and allowed the tie.
Game timeline
The confrontation began at an accelerated pace. The visitors even tried to look for the attack, but gave the Tricolor room. Brenner, for example, with his head, almost did the former. Lion Realpe took off over the line. Red Bull Bragantino also had its chances, as in Ytalo’s shot.
After 24 minutes, São Paulo even celebrated a goal, but referee Sávio Pereira Sampaio annulled it after consulting the VAR. Reinaldo, at the entrance of the area, had finished off, the ball deflected in Brenner, who was offside. After the first half, the teams lacked a little more objectivity, they had fewer opportunities.
Fernando Diniz tried to give more strength to the attack and power to the team in the second stage. Hernanes replaced Gabriel Sara, while Paulinho Boia replaced Vítor Bueno. Barbieri put Raúl in the Matthew Jesus.
Tricolor even had few chances, but allowed the rival to take advantage of the counterattacks. At seven minutes, in a sprint at Red Bull Bragantino, with the Pauline defense in disarray, Raúl, free, sent to the back of the net by Tiago Volpi.
At 16, the visitors had a chance to expand, Claudinho took a free kick and Luciano put his arm against the ball. After consulting the VAR, the referee scored the penalty. Claudinho, however, kicked out.
Red Bull had other opportunities to score and looked more on the field. However, the team failed badly and Tricolor tied. After the launch, the goalkeeper missed the start and the ball was free for Luciano, who only needed to touch for the empty goal.
In the final part, the visitors were close to scoring again. At 36, Arthur took a free kick to the edge of the area and hit the post. When it seemed that the match was going to end in a draw, Aderlan was brought down by Léo Pelé and the referee took the penalty. This time, Arthur charged and hit the post to keep the score 1 to 1.
