Cruzmaltino’s triumph was built thanks to the brilliance of his number 10 shirt. After a goalless first half, Nenê began to decide the match in the 14th minute of the second half, when the midfielder back-heeled Raniel, who hit from the left.
Five minutes later Nenê left his goal, in a beautiful free-kick, from the entrance of the area, which took him to the top scorer of the competition, with 5 goals.
