Sereias da Vila bow out in the third round of the Copa do Brasil | OneFootball

After a 1-1 draw in regular time, the Sereias da Vila were beaten 5-4 on penalties by Atlético Piauiense and bowed out of the Copa do Brasil in the third round. The single-elimination match was played at the opponents’ home ground, Estádio Municipal Lindolfo Monteiro, in Teresina (PI), on Thursday afternoon (28).

Santos FC’s women’s team will return to action on July 25, after the break in competitions for the men’s FIFA World Cup. Their next match will be in the 13th round of the Brazilian Championship, away against América Mineiro.

The start of the match was delayed by 40 minutes from the time scheduled by the CBF due to the absence of two ICU ambulances, required by the federation’s regulations.

In the 12th minute, Evelin Bonifácio played a one-two with Laryh and was brought down by a trip on the left side of the penalty area. Referee Thayslane de Melo Costa, however, waved play on.

Two minutes later, the defense cleared the ball straight to Evelin Bonifácio, who hit it first time from the left side of the box. She struck it hard, but the ball rose too much and went over the goal.

In the following minute, Suzane Pires carried the ball through midfield and, even from long range, tried her luck with a shot from the attacking half-space. Once again, the ball went over the crossbar.

Past the midway point of the first half, Carol Baiana received a pass from Laryh on the right side of the box. With little room to shoot, the number 9 poked the ball toward the lower left corner and forced the goalkeeper into a two-step save.

Then, in the 41st minute, Suzane Pires made a great play down the right wing, leaving her markers behind before passing to Carol Baiana. The center forward spotted Eudimilla arriving on the left and played a low cross to number 20. She cut inside her marker and curled a shot toward the top right corner, but was denied by a spectacular save from the goalkeeper, who tipped it out for a corner.

In the second half, 10 minutes in, Analuyza stole the ball from the opposition in the defensive half and surged forward. She beat three markers before reaching the edge of the box and setting herself to shoot. The powerful strike was dangerous, but went just a few centimeters over the goal.

Four minutes later, the Sereias da Vila opened the scoring at Lindolfo Monteiro Stadium. Suzane Pires received the ball on the left side of the penalty area and fired a powerful cross into the middle. Well positioned, Carol Baiana appeared between the defenders to slot it home firmly and bulge the net.

In the 32nd minute, the home side leveled the score through Natalia. She received a high ball and controlled it on the right side of the area before finishing into the net.

In the 36th minute, Katrine delivered a fine through ball to Leticia Santos, who raced onto it on the right wing and shot. The Santos full-back’s effort rose too high and went over the goal.

In the 42nd minute, Cury received a cross on the left side of the area and won the aerial duel with her marker to head the ball. It was heading toward the left corner of the net, but Grazi did well to leap and make the save.

The score remained level at the end of regular time, and the match went to penalties. In the shootout, the home side came out on top, winning 5-4.
