The confrontation

Corinthians started in full force. After 3 minutes, Duda Sampaio scared, but stopped at the good defense of goalkeeper Camila. Shortly thereafter, Gi Fernandes did not forgive, kicking low to open the scoring for the Brabas. The São Paulo team maintained the rhythm, but Cruzeiro reacted and, on 27 minutes, Marília climbed head to make everything the same. Cruzeiro still had a chance to turn the game in the first half, with Vanessinha and the 7th shirt, but the Corinthian goalkeeper Nicole shone with important defenses. At the end of the stage, Jaqueline and Vic Albuquerque also had opportunities for Corinthians, but stopped at Celeste Archer Camila.

The second half was more studied, with teams creating less chance. However, Corinthians managed to impose again. At 28 minutes, Tamires crossed and Gabi Zanotti added to replace the Brabas ahead. The cruise, however, showed resilience and, just five minutes later, Isabela drew headlong again, sealing the final score.
