Match Impact

Flamengo protected home advantage and controlled the decisive spell. E. Pulgar's 14th-minute goal set up a 2–0 home win over Vitoria, with Flamengo backing it up through 16 shots, 4 on target, 66% possession, 0.85 xG. The table gap made this more about protecting position than a direct swing. Flamengo had pressure and moments without enough finish, while Flamengo took the result by being sharper in the key phases.

Hidden story: Flamengo controlled the pressure, Flamengo controlled the result.
Turning point: E. Pulgar's first-half goal survived everything after it.
What it means: the large table gap made this about protecting position, not a direct table swing.
