Kiko Matorin showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Elano Pirani, who was totally free with the ball in the 85th minute. In the 87th minute Elano Pirani shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Kiko Matorin saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Elano Pirani came up free with the goalie in the 88th minute, the Jambradão Futebol e Rinha fans jumped to their feet.
