The game
Flamengo's first big chances came from their central defensive pairing. In the 13th minute, following a defensive error inside the box, Wallace threatened Cavalieri with a close-range right-footed shot, forcing the goalkeeper to make a difficult reflex save. Two minutes later, Juan threatened with a header that went just wide of the Fluminense goal. In the 24th minute, Guerrero launched a pass to Cirino, who advanced quickly and returned the ball to the Peruvian, but it went too far. Fluminense responded with a header from Cícero, which startled the Flamengo fans.
In the second half, Fluminense came close first with a powerful shot from Scarpa, but Paulo Victor was well positioned and made the save. At 16 minutes, Rodinei found Guerrero well-positioned inside the penalty area, but the number 9 shot weakly and the ball was blocked by the defense. The last chance of the game came for Flamengo at 41 minutes. Gabriel took advantage of a rebound from Cavalieri and shot powerfully, but the goalkeeper managed to make the save.
