Fluminense have one shot in 90 mins, first to blank v Mirassol | OneFootball

Fluminense delivered one of its poorest performances of the season in a 1-0 defeat to Mirassol this Saturday in the Brazilian Championship. Over the full 90 minutes, the team managed just one shot on target.The chance came only in the closing minutes of the match. In the 43rd minute of the second half, Germán Cano headed weakly after a cross into the box and posed no threat to goalkeeper Walter. Until then, Fluminense had struggled to create chances and barely troubled Mirassol’s defensive system.

The performance stands out even more because Mirassol had been struggling defensively in the Brasileirão. Before the match, the São Paulo side had conceded in every round of the competition, a situation Fluminense failed to take advantage of.The poor display puts Zubeldía’s team on alert ahead of the decisive final round of the Libertadores. Next Wednesday at 9:30 p.m., Fluminense will face Deportivo La Guaira at the Maracanã.

To qualify, the Tricolor must win and hope Bolívar slips up against Independiente Rivadavia. If it draws, Flu will advance if the Bolivian side loses.
