The game

The match started off tense, with both sides studying each other and lacking much in the way of chances. But in the 14th minute, the Meninas da Gávea put together a clever play. Diovanna crossed into the box and found Pimenta ready to head in and open the scoring.

Immediately after the goal, Flamengo attacked again with Diovanna down the wing, but the opposing defense blocked it. In the 25th minute, the match was stopped for a technical timeout. Then, in the 44th minute, Ana Deodato took a free kick near the box. Núbia took the shot, but the opposing goalkeeper made a great save. It wasn't long before the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

The game came back from the break in a tight game, and it wasn't until the 32nd minute, when Brendha was fouled, that Flamengo managed to threaten the opposing goal with Ana Donato's shot that went just wide. Ana Donato appeared again in the 35th minute with a long-range shot, but the goalkeeper saved. 

In the 41st minute, Amanda crossed to Mariana, who headed the ball just wide of the post and almost scored the second goal for the red-black team. In the final minutes of the game, in the 47th minute, the opposing team managed to  shake the nets of Mais Querido with Kalyne and tie the game.

The draw didn't last long, at 50', Amanda took the corner kick, the ball deflected off the opposing defender and fell to Barraca to finish and score the winning goal.
