The 0-0 draw reflects well what the match between Chapecoense and Vasco tonight (22). Technically weak, the match of the third round of Série B was marked by heavy rain and power outages at Arena Condá.
The lawn, punished with a lot of water, made the two clubs bet on direct connections, especially in the first stage. Without creation, few offensive plays were made in the duel. Chape was still the closest to the goal, but Perotti stopped at the crossbar.
The equality leaves the team from Santa Catarina provisionally in second place, with five points won. The team from Rio de Janeiro, which has not won for 11 games in Serie B, is in tenth place, with three points.
turn off and on
Even before the ball rolled, the spotlights at Arena Condá went out three times, due to the heavy rain that fell in Chapecó today (22). The game was seven minutes late to start and, when the ball rolled, it took another seven minutes to suffer another blackout.
Quickly, the lights were turned on and the ball rolled again, however, three minutes later they went out again. The back-and-forth happened one more time, bringing the fight to a halt about two minutes later. After that, finally, the lighting stabilized and allowed the confrontation to take place.
Who did well: Perotti
the attacker of Chapecoense was the one who most dedicated himself and looked for the ball during the half. Far from having a brilliant performance, Perotti was always looking for the ball and is the best on the field in his 100th game for Verdão do Oeste.
Who was bad: Baby
The midfielder was one of those responsible for the low technical quality of the confrontation. The sodden lawn damaged, but shirt 10 was unable to articulate the Vasco attacks, missing many passes. He was also not effective on set pieces. Even so, he was on the field for the full 90 minutes.
Vasco’s performance: each man for himself
The Hill Giant looked like a scavenger in the field. Unable to work the ball, the team seemed to have no collective alternative to reach the goal: each player did what was best for himself.
The way out, even through the heavy field, was betting on high balls. Raniel even fought between the defenders, however the alternative was not effective. After the break, the option was to take a risk from outside the area and the result was really: no clear opportunity to swing the net.
game chronology
With the grass very heavy, both teams abused kicks in the first half. Erick, at 16, was alone after Raniel won by the top, but he took the ball very badly and sent it out. The visitors’ other chance before the break came at 40, with Zé Gabriel. He hit, stopped in the puddle, caught the leftover, but stopped at Vagner’s defense.
The home team, on the other hand, risked more in the submissions, but also did not take much danger. After 40 minutes, the hosts rehearsed a pressure and hit the post. Perotti was alone almost in the small area and played low, hitting the post.
The second half improved a little and both teams had more intensity. Alviverde prowled the opponent’s area more in the opening minutes until the match resumed the slower pace of before the break.
When he tried to leave, Vasco preferred to hit from afar. The conclusions did not have the direction, demanding little from the goalkeeper Vagner. The shot that went closer to the post was Vinicius, in the 39th minute.
judge in a hurry
Vinícius Gonçalves Dias Araújo didn’t feel like leaving Arena Condá late. Even with the first half having a six-minute break just because of the lighting, the referee gave only five extra minutes and asked for the ball before the clock even completed 50 minutes. Vasco’s players complained about the early closure, however the referee pointed to his watch to justify the final whistle.
