With a goal in the last minutes, Vasco drew with Fluminense 1 x 1 tonight (13) in São Januário. Wellington Silva opened the scoring of the match, valid for the 25th round of the Brasileirão, with only eight minutes left. In the 46th minute, Canó got into the goal and tied the score
With the result, Fluminense climbed to 40 points, but remained in seventh place as Brasileirão Vasco reduced the advantage for teams outside the relegation zone. Cruzmaltino is 17th with 25 points, three behind Bahia, the first team outside of Z4.
On Wednesday (16), Fluminense will go to Antônio Accioly to face Atlético-GO. Vasco will return to the field only next Sunday (20) against Santos.
Scorer, Wellington Silva is the best in the flu
Acting in a slightly different position than usual, Wellington Silva was the best of Fluminense, much more than for brandishing the nets in São Januário. Closer to the goal and looser on the pitch, the forward floated and exchanged positions with Nenê and Marcos Paulo, greatly energizing the tricolor attack. In addition, he returned to distribute the dribble as in his best moments and helped a lot in marking.
Benítez is the highlight of Vasco
The Argentine midfielder was the one who took the most risk in the Basque team. Before Fluminense’s goal, he had already submitted twice from outside the area. Later he acted more as an assistant, but both Cano and Gustavo Torres did not know how to take advantage of the dismissal. He made more than 75% of the passes and was also effective on defense, winning most of the matches he attempted.
Egídio fails many passes and is the worst of the Flu
Fluminense had an average performance in São Januário, with a less cohesive collective game than with Odair Hellmann, but a greater possession of the ball during the match. Among the different styles of Marcão and his predecessor, one of the options was the maintenance of Egídio. The left-back got a bit difficult with the ball, missed a lot of passes and got lost in pursuit.
Vinicius was out
Not to mention that the forward did nothing in the game, Vinicius had an isolated shot at the end of the first half, after a nice pass from Cano. During the 80 minutes he was on the field, he only touched the ball 23 times. He was substituted in the middle of the second half by the entry of Ribamar.
Another goal at the beginning
Fluminense is the team that scored the most goals in the first ten minutes of this Brasileirão. In today’s case, the tricolor’s first goal came after eight minutes, with Wellington Silva. He took advantage of the failure of Leandro Castán to try to clear the ball crossed by Egídio and sent it to the net.
Vasco lacked luck in the first half
The Fluminense goalkeeper was required in some moments of the first stage, but he was also lucky in others. Vasco managed to break through the tricolor defense at least twice, but suffered some deviation after finishing. Marcos Felipe fell well to defend a shot from Cano at 12, shortly after Gripe’s goal and also responded well to two attempts by Neto Borges in the final stretch of the opening stage.
Talles Magno described the reaction
Vasco’s young talent arrived at 16 minutes into the second half, at a time when Ricardo Sá’s team was able to balance possession. He managed to warm up the game, especially with the ball kicked off the post with less than five minutes on the field.
Cano reaches the finish line at the end
With 46 minutes to go, Vasco was finally rewarded for all the pressure exerted on Fluminense. Leo Gil risked from afar and the ball found the Argentine, who only had the annoyance of pushing towards the goal and finally the sequence of two Basque defeats.
Almost in the G4
Fluminense stayed in the G4 of Brasileirão practically throughout the game. With 1-0, Tricolor reached 42 points, leaving behind Palmeiras, Internacional and Grêmio, all with 41 points. However, fourth place was lost after Cano’s goal and Fluminense had to settle for the seventh-place administration, now with 40 points.
