Grêmio x Cruzeiro: Important goals and moves
Cruzeiro opened the scoring in the eighth minute. Neto burst from the defense and Bruno Rodriguez scored in the chest and had space before hitting a beautiful shot into the corner. Five minutes later, Rafael was asked to kick Petillo from close range. Shortly afterwards, the Cruzeiro goalkeeper became a fan of the team. Suarez controlled the area, attempted a shot and ended up hitting the crossbar.
Suarez scared the ball away again on the 34th, when he took it first after he left and sent it off the crossbar. Already in additions, Cruzeiro has grown again. In the 46th, Wesley demanded a good defense from Gabriel. A minute later, the fox almost got up. Gabriel was unable to intercept the launch and Bruno Rodriguez volleyed the ball against the goal. But the number 9 tried to clear Kahneman and the defender pushed him away.
The visitors were also better at the start of the second half and the main arrival came at the age of 25, when Dorado found William and the side bumped the ball to the outside. But that all changed eight minutes later with a touch of genius. Suarez received it on the edge of the area and tapped the corner with three fingers.
