Goiás vs Athletico: Game Recap and Weekend Fixtures

Goiás remains 15th in the table, while Athletico returns to the G-6. The home team has 23 points, and Hurricane, 32.

Teams return to the field for the weekend. Goiás visits Corinthians on Saturday (26), at 21:00 (Brasília time). Athletico receives Fluminense on Sunday (27), at 18:30.

How was the game

Goiás had a penalty in favor at the beginning of the first half, but VAR annulled it. The referee signaled a penalty after the ball hit Cacá’s arm, from Athletico, but turned back after VAR intervened because the ball deflected first off the defender’s leg.

After that, Athletico pressed and opened the scoring with Vitor Roque, with a beautiful shot from the edge of the area. The Hurricane scorer scored on the third chance, in yet another play with Cannobio. Tadeu, goalkeeper of Goiás, still made two great defenses in a row and avoided the second goal.

Needing to chase the result, Goiás launched an attack, betting a lot on the aerial ball. Bruno Melo and Edu had good header opportunities, but sent the ball out.
