Flamengo took a big step toward securing a spot in the second round of the Brasileirão U-18. In a match held at the Sorocaba Training Center, the "Mais Querido" defeated Goiás 2-0 and reached nine points. Tuane and Letícia scored the goals. 

O JOGO

The Meninas da Gávea started the match with pressure in the opponent's half, creating a few chances in the opening minutes, and the goal soon came in the 10th minute. Sarah made a good play and passed to Tuane. The striker didn't hesitate and fired a powerful shot: 1-0. Despite the advantage, the Rubro-Negro didn't stop and continued to dominate. Mariana Fernandes then hit the crossbar. Before halftime, Tuane had another opportunity but couldn't finish.

In the second half, Kaylane hit the post early on and nearly scored. Without letting the momentum drop, the team gained momentum with the introductions of Letícia and Isadora. In the closing stages of the match, the search for a second goal intensified. Maria Peck and Tuane both had chances, but Letícia was the one who shone. In stoppage time, the midfielder noticed the Goiás goalkeeper was off balance and fired a stylish shot from the edge of the box: 2-0. 

 And now?

In isolated leadership, Mengão will face Goiás again, next Tuesday (02), at 10:30 am, for the return leg.
