Atlético is in the final of the Brazilian Cup and awaits the winner against Flamenco and Corinthians. After all, this Saturday (19th) they tied 1-1 with Vasco Poti to return to the semifinals, silencing Sao Januario. Cruz-Maldino scored with Vegeti from a penalty in the first half. But Hulk equalized in the final stages of the match. The Miners thus advanced by winning the first leg 2-1.
Despite the heavy rain in Rio de Janeiro and all the tension surrounding a match of this magnitude, Vasco and Atlético played well. Cruz-Maldino and Gallo began a “transparent exchange” with good plays. Thus, at the age of 15, Mateus Carvalho took a risk from outside the area and got the first “Uhhh” from the Vasco fans. Subsequently, Atlético demanded a great stop from Leo Jardi with Battaglia and Júnior Alonso.
Basque ahead
Three minutes later, Paulinho invaded Vasco's area and tried to score a great goal, but Vasco ran into the defense. Vegeti, in the 29th minute, took advantage of a cross from Paulo Henrique and turned to see the ball deflected from the goal.
Vasco's goal would come six minutes later, also starting with a cross: Bitton sent it into the area and Odavio touched it with his hand. Sorry, therefore. Veggetti shot and opened the scoring for Cruz-Maldino. From then until the end of the first half, it was Vasco who arrived alongside Bhumita and Leo Pelé.
The rooster finally squeezes, seeking a balance
The second phase began more seriously. Less than two minutes later, Paulinho and Vegetti missed great chances. At 14, Puma headed a header past Vegetti, which almost scored his and Vasco's second of the tournament. Caló responded with Paulinho: in an excellent counterattack led by Arana, the attacker wasted a good chance.
In the final, Atlético-MG pushed harder and tied with a great goal from Hulk. At 39, Scarpa made a good pass by painting the helmet from the outside.
