After showing a reaction with the victory over Ponte Preta, Cruzeiro lost tonight 1-0 to Cuiabá (3), for the 13th round of Serie B. The match was played at Arena Pantanal in Mato Grosso.
With the result, the miners continue in 17th place in the national tournament, with 11 points won, and they could not leave the relegation zone. Cuiabá is isolated at the end with 28 points, six more than Chapecoense, vice leader of the competition.
Cuiabá will face Juventude, in third place, on the next round of Serie B, in Alfredo Jaconi. The duel will be played on Tuesday (6), at 7.15pm (Brasilia). Cruzeiro will play against Sampaio Corrêa in Mineirão. The match will take place on Thursday (8), at 6:30 pm (Brasilia time).
The best: Machado
Risen again among the headlines, Filipe Machado was Cruzeiro’s highlight in the tie with Cuiabá. The steering wheel was essential to create plays and also to score.
Worst: Regis
Without the same inspiration that he showed in the victory over Ponte Preta, Régis played a match below expectations tonight (3). Cruzeiro’s number 10 did not know how to create plays and also to finish long distance. Not surprisingly, he was replaced by Marcelo Moreno before ten minutes of the second half.
Felipe Marques scores at the end and guarantees victory
Fired in the second half of the match, Felipe Marques was crucial to Cuiabá’s triumph over Cruzeiro. Chosen to enter Maxwell’s place, the player received a perfect cross from Yago to hit Fábio’s net in the final stages. The goal was enough to isolate Cuiabá in first place in Serie B.
With more possession, Cruzeiro finds it difficult to create
Cruzeiro had more ball possession than Cuiabá, with 52%. But Ney Franco’s team failed to create. In total, there were only two submissions towards goal, against four from the opponent. The home team had 11 appearances in total, against seven of the visitors.
