How was the match?

The first half in Bragança Paulista showed a strategic Vasco with their homework done. Fernando Diniz’s team sat deep, with a solid and secure defense, to nullify the home team’s attacks. The strategy was clear: close the spaces and be lethal on the counterattacks. After an early scare with a shot from Jhon Jhon, well saved by Léo Jardim, Vasco began to control the game without the ball.

And the plan proved perfect at 27 minutes. In a play down the left, Lucas Piton crossed, the defense slightly deflected, and the ball found the man who needed a goal more than anyone: Pablo Vegetti. The Pirate finished, goalkeeper Cleiton got a touch, but couldn’t stop it from crossing the line. The drought was over, and it was the well-deserved goal for halftime tranquility.

In the second half, Bragantino threw themselves forward, but ran into a wall formed by the center-back duo Carlos Cuesta and Robert Renan, in another stellar performance. Vasco, patient, waited for the right moment. And it came at 23 minutes. In a great team move, Paulo Henrique shot, Cleiton parried, and Vegetti, like a true striker, was there to finish. 2-0 and the result was practically sealed.

With the opponent beaten, there was still time for the celebration to be complete. At 44, after a spectacular run, Colombian Andrés Gómez started from his own half, left the defenders behind, and set up the youngster GB, who struck first time to seal the rout.
