The biggest win in the history of the match! In the first minutes of the game, América went all out against Vasco and gave the impression that they would create difficulties for the Cruzmaltino team. That was a complete mistake. The Giant of the Hill only needed the first attack to impose itself on the field and open the scoring. Fagner led a counterattack on the right and passed to Eder Luis. The forward passed the ball back to the full-back inside the area. Despite struggling to control the ball, Fagner managed to get a precise shot. 1-0 Vasco. América tried to respond. Edson took a chance from afar and the ball went close. Felipe Adão managed to scare the opponent with a free kick. But it was Vasco who was most dangerous. Eder Luis, who seems to have returned to his good times, received the ball on the left and passed it to Felipe at the edge of the area. The midfielder, who said during the week that it was easier for Romário's statue to score than him, kicked it hard and was lucky when his shot was deflected off Bruno to increase the score. During the celebration, he was embraced by all his teammates. Vasco grew and América was intimidated. Returning to the team after suffering a hand injury, Fellipe Bastos took responsibility for the set pieces from afar. In one of them, from almost the middle of the field, the defensive midfielder sent a bomb in the right direction. Mota made a great save. On the bench, Ricardo Gomes was shocked by the shot. “Is he really going to shoot from there?” he asked the assistants, before the shot was taken Mota didn’t even have time to celebrate his good save. Soon after, Ramon was fouled near the area. The full-back himself took a powerful shot and the goalkeeper, who jumped the wrong way, accepted it. Vasco fans celebrated, who followed the celebration of the third goal with the fourth. Two minutes after Ramon’s goal, Marcel headed the ball into the net, after a corner kick. Eder Luis continued to go full steam ahead and led the Vasco attack. His feet almost scored the fifth goal, with a cross shot from the edge of the area. Nervous, the América team was disorganized on the field. Leandrinho, while fighting for the ball with Felipe, hit the midfielder in the eye. The Vasco player asked to come off and was cheered by the fans. Enrico came on in Felipe's place and, in two minutes on the field, also scored his goal. Eder Luis received the ball at speed on the right and crossed perfectly for the midfielder to send it into the net, sending Vasco into the break with a five-goal lead on the scoreboard. América returned for the second half with Wellington in place of Hugo. In Lulinha's words, the red and white team had to defend itself and try to minimize the embarrassment. On the Vasco side, Ricardo Gomes took off Eder Luis, who felt pain in his calf, and brought on Caíque. If Eder was inspired in setting up plays, Caíque arrived and sent the ball into the goal. In a good exchange of passes with Fagner, the forward received the ball inside the area and, free, shot into the net. Vasco continued to press and América's defense was increasingly lost. Ronan tried to get the ball through the middle of the area and passed it to Ramon, who shot low and scored the seventh goal. During the technical timeout for water, at 20 minutes, Lulinha complained to his players about their offensive stance. América's coach told his players not to go on the attack. "Why do you want to score a goal for honor?", he asked. But it was no use. América failed again in defense and Fellipe Bastos took advantage to pass a sweet pass to Jeferson in the middle of the area. The midfielder did not miss the opportunity and scored the team's eighth goal. Jeferson almost scored the ninth, after another mistake by the red-and-white defense that left him free at the edge of the area. The shot, however, went wide. Vasco continued to press and had both defenders on the attack at the same time. Dedé and Anderson Martins ventured forward, but were unable to score. The ninth goal was scored by Enrico, who received the ball on the left, cut past the defender and sent it into the net. The fans in the stands called for a tenth, but referee Wagner do Santos Rosa, given the situation, decided not to add extra time and ended the match seconds before the 45th minute.
