Just after 5 minutes, this translated into a goal. Fabricio Lentz received it on the left, and found the right cross for David to open the scoring in Gávea. Balanced offensively and defensively, Mengão used ball possession to avoid many of the opponent's chances. And before the technical stoppage, they tried to leave everything equal on the aggregate score, and regain the advantage in the confrontation. Felipe Teresa received a great shot on the right and went one-on-one. The number 7 cleared the defender and scored Mengão's second goal!
With two goals from the front, Flamengo took control of the match once and for all. Consequently, the third came out, still in the first stage. Fabricio again arrives with danger in attack, crosses into the area, and full-back Lucyan, as a center forward, makes the third!
The hot weather in the south of Rio de Janeiro also raised spirits on the field, especially as it was a decisive classic. The referee, in order to control the match, distributed yellow cards to both teams, five of which went to Flamengo alone. Two of them ended up going to Felipe Lima, who ended up being sent off before the break.
At the beginning of the second half, the match referee directly expelled the athlete Adriano, from Botafogo, for a dangerous foul in midfield. In this way, with 10 x 10, Mengão's U-17 bet on more offensive transitions and possession of the ball to control the final stage
