Allison is featured
With two goals and a very interesting offensive movement, Allison was the highlight of the game. In the first, he appeared in the area to head into the Portuguesa net. In the second, he took a rebound from the goalkeeper’s defense in the penalty taken by Pedrinho.
“I wanted to thank you for the opportunity to play a Copinha. I scored two goals and I dedicate it to my mother, my father and my girlfriend. I wanted to thank you for being cheering for me from so far away”, he said after the first half.
Inter bet on strong team
Inter bet on collective strength. With the same ideas of exit and offensive presence shown in the previous game – adopting three players behind in the exit and releasing the right side Bernardo to join the players in the middle – the gaucho team was efficient and dominant.
Bernardo’s exit down the flank worked right at the beginning of the match, when he received from Lucca and made a beautiful cross for the opening goal.
And even if there were moments without possession and back, Colorado was safe in their movements and showed firmness throughout the match.
The gaucho team started the game with: Lucas Flores; Bernardo, João Pedro, Tiago Guth and Lucas Ryan; Bizescki, Gustavo, Jonathan, Pedrinho and Allison; Lucca.
