Under-20s beat Fluminense in Cotia in the Brazilian Championship | OneFootball

São Paulo’s Under-20 team defeated Fluminense 1-0 this Wednesday at CFA Laudo Natel in the fifth round of the Brazilian Under-20 Championship. Djhordney scored the Tricolor’s goal.

With the result, Tricolor moved up to seven points and returned to the upper part of the standings. The team will be back in action next Thursday, the 16th, against Avaí at 3 p.m. at Ressacada in Florianópolis.

The first half was completely dominated by São Paulo. Coached by Vizolli, the team set the pace of the match and created far more attacking chances, but the visitors managed to withstand the home side’s pressure.

In the second half, all that pressure paid off. Just four minutes in, Luiz Fernando took a throw-in into the box, Djhordney flicked a header on, and opened the scoring for Tricolor.

In the 27th minute, João Pedro made a great save and helped secure the positive result. The visitors pressed in the final minutes, but could not prevent the São Paulo victory.

São Paulo: João Pedro; Igor Felisberto, Isac, Igão (Hugo, 29/2) and Guilherme Reis; Matheus Ferreira (Kaio, 36/2), Lucyan (Angelo, 36/2) and Djhordney; Luiz Fernando (Ryan, 16/2), Juan Potes (Davi Pena, 36/2) and Matheus Menezes (Nicolas Kauan, 29/2). Head coach: Marcos Vizolli
