RB Bragantino sweep aside Vasco da Gama with clinical display | OneFootball

Match in Five Sentences: RB Bragantino beat Vasco da Gama 3-0. On the stroke of half time, Rodriguinho broke the deadlock with a strike from outside the box. After the restart, Isidro Pitta doubled Braga's lead in the 60th minute, Fernando then sealed it (77.) and VAR later confirmed a penalty that Eduardo Sasha missed (87.). Despite 59.4% possession, Vascão mustered 14 attempts to Massa Bruta's 21 and could not find a way past Tiago Volpi. Massa Bruta remain fifth and host Carabobo in the Sudamericana next, while Vasco welcome Barracas in the same competition.

Player of the Match: Rodriguinho set the tone for Braga, scoring the opener and firing four attempts with two on target to keep the hosts pinned back.

Stat of the Match: Tiago Volpi produced six saves, a steady platform for Braga's clean sheet under pressure.

Three Things We Learned: Vasco had 59.4% of the ball yet finished with six shots on target and no breakthrough. Henry Mosquera created the second goal and delivered four key passes, stretching Vascão throughout. Braga's cushion could have been bigger, with a late penalty missed after VAR confirmed the spot kick.
