Without shocks and with extreme ease, Atlético-MG beat Goiás 3-0 and continues to lead Brasileirão. Better from start to finish against an opponent who barely finished in Mineirão, Galo built the result in the first half, with Keno, from the penalty spot, and Nathan. At the end of the match, Marrony closed the account.
Earlier, Flamengo beat Vasco 2-1, going to 27 points. With the result of Mineirão, Atlético remains in the lead, now with 30 points, three ahead of Cariocas. Tomorrow, Internacional will host Athletico Paranaense and can reduce the white margin to two points.
Who Got It Right: Keno Becomes King Of Saturday Night
Keno gave another example of his good time and how he has done well on Saturday nights. This time there was no hat-trick, but the forward took the penalty, scored the goal and even assisted. At the end of the game, he even sealed the post.
16-year-old boy shows personality as owner of the Rooster
The great promise of Atlético, 16-year-old Sávio, made his first start as a starter in his professional career. Falling to the right, the attacker was very active and gained confidence during the match. Despite some poorly made decisions, Savinho, as he is called, was not afraid to climb, increasing athletic power in the one-on-one as Keno also terrified on the left side. Sávio had at least three good chances, two of them stopping goalkeeper Tadeu.
Gallo wrinkles and hits goals before the break
As usual, Atlético did not let their rivals play within Mineirão. With the high lines, Galo had more than 70% possession and no less than 12 presentations in the first half. The pressure started from the beginning, but did not turn into goals because of poor conclusions or good saves from goalkeeper Tadeu. The scoring opened just minutes before the break, with Keno taking a penalty from Sasha. In extra time, Nathan infiltrated the area and scored with a header after a great Keno cross down the left.
Goiás lives off the long ball and suffers the setback
Goiás’ strategy was clear. The visiting team looked for a quick transition and long-distance shooting, but none of this had an effect. By choosing not to play from the defense field, the team could barely reach the ball in the midfield. He pushed the pressure as far as he could and went into halftime with a single shot on Everson’s goal.
Marrony makes third and Tadeu avoids an even bigger victory
Despite not failing in the attack (so as not to irritate Sampaoli), Atlético stopped in the second half. With the game under control for another 45 minutes, El Gallo remained in the attack field for practically the rest of the game, but without the rhythm of before. It was up to goalkeeper Tadeu to make new and good saves, avoiding a win in Mineirão. Still, there was time to Brown do one more and close the athletic account at the end of the game. Final score from 3 to 0.
Atlético pays tribute to Rafael Moura’s mother
Minutes before the game, forward Rafael Moura received a personalized shirt with the name of his mother, Junia Moura, who died on the 2nd, victim of cancer. The player was trained in Galo and never hid that he and the whole family are Athletes.
