THE Santos beat Rondoniense 3-0 tonight (6), at Fonte Luminosa, in Araraquara, and secured his spot in the next phase of the Copa SP de football junior in advance. The goals were scored by Rwan Seco and Weslley Patati, twice.
With the result, Alvinegro da Vila Belmiro goes to six points and shares the leadership of Group 8 with Ferroviária. The two can no longer be reached by Operário and Rondoniense. Due to the goal difference, Meninos da Vila take first place in the bracket.
The highlights of the match were for Rwan Seco and Weslley Patati, who, recovered from Covid-19, entered the second half and changed the game for the Santos team. The two are the team’s top scorers in Copinha, with two goals each.
In the next round, Peixe takes on Ferroviária, leader of the group with six points, and needs to win or draw to end the group stage in first place.
With Patati and Rwan Seco, Santos decides the game in the final stage
Coach Élder Campos started Santos with Diógenes; Sandro Perpétuo, Jair, Derick and Lucas Pires (Andrey Quintino); Jhonnathan (Matheus Nunes), João Victor and Rwan Seco (Nycollas Lopo); Lucas Barbosa (Pedrinho), Fernandinho (Weslley Patati) and Victor Michell (Ed Carlos). The alvinegro team started the match with superiority, and scared right in the second minute of the game, with Lucas Barbosa kicking out.
At 11, after an open corner, Rwan Seco missed a good opportunity in the small area. At 22, after a move by Fernandinho and failure of the defense, Rwan scored, but the referee signaled an offside that did not exist. The ball reached shirt 10 after a touch from the defense, which would make the goal legal. After the bad goal, the game was balanced, with chances for both sides, but the first half ended without goals.
Peixe entered the final stage with the same impetus, and, after dangerous shots with Weslley Patati and Lucas Pires, had his main opportunity – until then – to open the scoring. At ten, Patati invaded the area and was knocked down by Anderson. He even applied for the penalty, but was convinced by Rwan Seco, who missed the penalty after kicking too hard and hitting the crossbar.
Ten minutes after the slight disagreement between the candidates to take the penalty, the duo put their talent to good use. Weslley Patati made a great move, won two markers and crossed with precision to Rwan Seco, who had already lost three chances to score, complete with chest and finally swing the net. It was the second goal of shirt 10, who had already scored a painting in the victory against Operário, in the first round.
The two boys reversed roles and shone again in the 35th minute, when Rwan Seco received in the penalty area and crossed for Patati to head in. The number 7 consecrated the great performance in Araraquara three minutes later, when he took the leftover from the entrance of the area, carried the ball and kicked in the angle to score a great goal, his second in the match, and close the account at Fonte Luminosa.
