In the second Cruzeiro game under the command of Luiz Felipe Scolari, the Minas Gerais club started a draw with Náutico, at Estádio dos Aflitos, in a match valid for the 18th round of Serie B. The home team He went ahead with Vinícius, but Fox achieved equality in the last minutes of the game with Airton.
The game was very important for Cruzeiro, who could overtake Náutico himself and leave the relegation zone in case of victory. As she did not come, the team goes to 17 points and continues in 18th place. Náutico loses the opportunity to take off from the grip zone and is slightly higher, with 19 points.
Who did well: Vinícius scores and Patrick Brey enters well
Vinícius was not only the main responsible for the victory of Timbu. He had merits in shooting down the middle and releasing the kick from the front of the area, but he also collaborated with good plays and made small mistakes in his participation. On the side of the Cruzeiro, there was also a good participation of Patrick Brey, who replaced Matheus Pereira and finished the match with an assist for the tie.
Who went wrong: Marcelo Moreno plays the game
Isolated in attack, Marcelo Moreno took the ball little. The opportunities that arose were mostly from above, but they did not find the attacker, or he was in bad position or the centers came out with poor quality. His first real submission chance was in the second half, but it was poorly completed.
Nautical takes the lead in a lot of fighting and little football
Technically, the game was not the best. Despite being balanced and with a lot of fighting on both sides, the first part of the game had few moments of emotion. Náutico reached the goal further and scored on Vinícius’s low shot, from the edge of the area. Kieza still missed a good chance and Fábio made a good save on Jean Carlos’s free kick. On the other side, Felipão’s team lost steam after the departure of the injured Arthur Caíke. In a team where few players knew what to do, the best opportunity was to cover defender Ramón.
After Ramón, Cacá saves Cruzeiro on the line
Náutico has been suffering from an aiming imbalance, and that was clear in the game. On two occasions, Kieza and Erick invaded the sky blue area, but they finished badly on Fábio’s goal. In the first half, Ramón managed to save over the line. In the final stage, it was Cacá’s turn to save Fox in the same way.
Cruzeiro closes the game at abafa, and the reserves make the difference
Despite the opportunities wasted by Náutico, the game came to an end with the victory of the locals. Cruzeiro attacked at the base of the abafa, but without much organization. But the tie ended in the aerial ball and with the help of those who came off the bench. Fábio started the counterattack, and Patrick Brey, on the left side, put the ball in the head of Airton, who tried hard to tie the game. In the absence of five more minutes of extra time and ten minutes to go, the game won the emotion that it had rarely, but neither team managed to move the score again.
