Despite the Laranjeiras team achieving the victory away from home in the end, the best team on Castelão’s lawn was Fortaleza, which ended up stopping in the good performance of goalkeeper Fábio.
One factor that greatly determined the dynamics of the match was Luiz Henrique’s goal, scored by the young striker just eight minutes into the match. Nathan launched shirt 11, which left Capixaba on the ground with a cut and then kicked in place to overcome Max Walef.
With the disadvantage on the scoreboard, the team led by Juan Vojvoda launched the attack, giving spaces for Fluminense to arrive with danger in counterattack plays.

In the final stage, both Fortaleza and the Laranjeiras team scored, but the goals of Moisés, in the seventh minute, and Cano, in the 29th minute, were annulled by the referee with the help of VAR (video referee). Thus, the score remained unchanged until the end.
