Absolute cruise

Playing at home, Fortaleza until he tried to dictate the pace of the game at the beginning and was the first three minutes with the ball. However, in the first move of Cruzeiriro, João Ricardo made three straight defenses: two observations by Kaio Jorge and one by William.

By the way, from then on, he only gave a scrape, who continued to check the game and have opportunities in the attack, until he was able to open the score in 33 minutes. Lucas Romero touched Gabigol at the entrance of the area, which passed for the first time to Kaio Jorge. Finished at the bottom, without any possibility for João Ricardo. Thus, Volpe took the moment and, a few minutes later, at 40 years old, Lucas Silva expanded. He received from Gabigol on the right, entered the area, cut in the center and ended up left in the corner.
