The cold afternoon in the Rio Grande do Sul mountain range turned into a game with few chances. Caxias and ABC studied each other a lot throughout the match and didn’t risk much. Goalkeepers Marcelo Pitol (Caxias) and Wellington (ABC) did little work. ABC appeared at the beginning of the second half, when Marcos Antônio’s shot was squashed by Pitol. Caxias, on the other hand, lost a great chance at 43, when Bruno Ré amended with a cart, facing the goal, throwing the ball out. There was a beginning of confusion among the players after the final whistle, which was soon controlled.
