In a match in which they defended rather than attacked, the team led by coach Mano Menezes had goalkeeper Daniel as the highlight, who stopped the Peruvian team’s dangerous attack. The negative note of Internacional was the German striker, sent off in the 20th minute of the second half after elbowing Arias.
Now Colorado focuses on the Brazilian, competition in which it visits Fortaleza next Sunday (7) at the Castelão stadium.
