Women's Brasileirão semi-final: where to watch Flamengo v São Paulo | OneFootball

Flamengo and São Paulo meet again to decide a finalist in the Women’s Brasileirão

Another knockout day! This Saturday (19), Flamengo and São Paulo will play the second leg of the Women’s Brasileirão semifinal. Kickoff is at 4:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Estádio Brinco de Ouro da Princesa. The match will be broadcast by TV Globo nationwide, as well as on SporTV and GETV.

After finishing fifth in the standings phase, Flamengo are trying to overturn the first-leg result to reach the Women’s Brasileirão final. Even so, São Paulo are considered favorites for the title. After finishing first in the standings phase, the Morumbi side got past Grêmio in the quarterfinals with a goalless draw in Rio Grande do Sul and a 2-0 win at Estádio Brinco de Ouro da Princesa in Campinas.

What happened in the first leg?

The first leg in Rio de Janeiro had two very different halves. The first half was intense, with chances created by both sides, but the defenses stood out and the score remained level at 0-0 until halftime. However, in the second half, the match became more open and lively, and it was no surprise that all four goals came then.

In short, Flamengo struck first just seven minutes into the second half, when Mariana Fernandes took advantage of a free kick into the box to find the net. However, São Paulo pushed forward and equalized in the 26th minute through Mylena Carioca.

When the match seemed to be heading for a draw, São Paulo’s pressure paid off late on, and in the 43rd minute Robinha turned the score around. Finally, in stoppage time, Bruna Calderan converted a penalty kick to seal the São Paulo side’s 3-1 win.

How did the first phase go?

It is worth remembering that in the standings phase, São Paulo beat Flamengo 2-1 in a match played at CT de Cotia, the home ground of the São Paulo side. On that occasion, Isa Guimarães and Duda Serrana scored for the hosts, while Fernandinha pulled one back for the Rubro-Negro.
