Second halfAt 3 of the final stage, Flamengo's quick counterattack, but Luiz Araújo prefers not to touch Arrascaeta and finishes over the opponent's defense. What a chance Rubro-Negro wasted. Six minutes later, Bruno Henrique touches and Arrascaeta finishes into the back of the net: 1 to 0 Flamengo.
