And try to make history by winning the Brazilian Under-17 Championship", said Vieira about the decisive classic.

In that match, Douglas Telles scored two goals, while Pablo scored a great free kick from midfield. Now, the teams meet again in the Under-17 Brasileirão, with qualification for the semifinals at stake.
