Atlético-MG lost the opportunity to take the lead in the Brazilian Championship tonight (24). The third place in the table was in the 0-0 draw with Sport, in Mineirão. Still with more than 20 presentations in the game, Galo stopped before the excellent performance of goalkeeper Luan, the main person responsible for equality on the scoreboard.
With the result, Atlético goes to 32 points and follows Flamengo and Internacional, both with 34, who will face tomorrow (24). Sport leaves the court celebrating the result and goes to 21, provisionally remaining in 11th place.
Who shone: Luan closes Sport’s goal
There were at least five great saves throughout the game. Sport’s first submission (out) was only in the 37th minute, before more than 20 shots from Atlético. In the main plays of the hosts, Luan was there to avoid the goal.
Who was wrong: Sasha barely participates in the game
Atlético had 14 appearances in the first half alone, but Sasha was not responsible for any. Quite missing, he appeared a little more in the final stage, but left the field 20 minutes into the second half.
Former executioner and discontent, TN30 is discreet in Sport
Carrasco from Atlético-MG wearing the Cruzeiro shirt and white and black when he was without a club, Thiago Neves was the main goal hope for Sport. The team’s strategy was to bet on counterattacks with the midfielder, who acted more forward, but opportunities hardly appeared or were mishandled when Sport had the ball on his feet.
Atlético plays a lot, but shows a low repertoire
In the first 40 minutes, the game was warm and predictable. The scenario was similar to the last Atlético games, which had much more possession, but touched the ball too much and finished badly. Faced with a very closed Sport and playing ball, Galo lacked a greater repertoire when trying to overcome the boom, either in individual plays, infiltrations and / or kicks from outside the area. In the first half, it only happened after 41 minutes. Savarino (who still stamped the post), Jair and Keno were in great danger, but all three stopped goalkeeper Luan.
Luan and Beam save Sport in a new Galo bombing
With even greater intensity, Atlético began to crush Sport early in the second half. Once again, goalkeeper Luan was the protagonist, stopping Franco and Keno’s submissions inside the area in a matter of seconds. When he couldn’t touch the ball, he again had the crossbar, which prevented Galo’s goal.
Zaracho makes his debut and Atlético despairs
Announced a week ago, Matías Zaracho received about half an hour at his first opportunity. Atlético increased the pressure and even scored a highly annulled goal, but they also lost their calm at times and went into despair. In the last minutes, a lot of things and little organization. Tense and barely attacking, the Minas team failed to score the longed-for winning goal.
