How the Game Was

After pressure at the beginning of the game, Bahia opened the scoring. At 20 minutes, Ademir received from Willian José in a quick counterattack and finished from outside the area at mid-height, hitting the corner of Jandrei. However, the lead didn't last long. At 27, Taliari received a cross from Hermes in the area and, with his back to the goal, turned against the defender to shoot hard, leaving no chance for defense.

After the goal, the home team started to control the game's actions but was stopped by good saves from Ronaldo and went into halftime with everything equal. In the second half, at 20 minutes, Marcos Paulo scored with a bicycle kick, but the goal was disallowed for offside in the play.

At the end of the game, Youth piled up opportunities to reverse the score and leave Alfredo Jaconi with the victory. However, Ronaldo was in inspired form and closed the goal, ensuring the draw for Bahia. In stoppage time, Bahia missed three real goal chances in the same play, inside the small area.
