After losing 1-0 in the confrontation of Salvador, the team led by coach Renato Gaúcho was supported by more than 48,000 fans who attended the Maracanã stadium to build the necessary score to ensure classification in regulatory time.
Having the advantage of moving forward with the draw, coach Rogério Ceni’s team was closed in defense and allowed Tricolor das Laranjeiras to command the actions from the first minute of the match. However, despite the numerous opportunities created, Fluminense only managed to open the scoring at the beginning of the final stage, with Uruguayan Canobbio in a penalty kick in nine minutes.
