THE MATCH

Right in the opening minute, Aloísio, from the right side, crossed to Zé Antônio, who headed it toward the corner, only to be denied by the goalkeeper. It was nearly the first goal for Alvinegro.

In the 19th minute, Zé Antônio broke forward behind the defense and, one-on-one with the goalkeeper, shot, but the keeper made the save.

The People’s Team opened the scoring through Vinicius, who came on in place of Alvaro Kayo in the 8th minute of the second half. The forward took advantage of a rebound from a blocked ball, controlled it at the right edge of the box, and fired a low shot across goal into the back of the net.

Vozão’s lead lasted three minutes, when Atlético/PI equalized in the 11th minute.

In the 41st minute, Figueiredo pulled a rabbit out of the hat and put the Most Beloved back in front with a brilliant strike into the top corner. The midfielder received the ball at the edge of the area and finished with no chance for the goalkeeper.
