Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Sport Recife and Operário-PR shared a 2-2 draw in the Brasileiro Série B, with midfielder Biel Fonseca the standout player as his goal and assist set up a crucial away trip to Goiás next. The hosts twice led but were pegged back each time, leaving them frustrated to drop two points after dominating large spells of the match.

Operário-PR struck first through Aylon from Hildeberto Pereira's cross in the 6th minute, but Biel Fonseca equalised unassisted on 17 minutes. Sport took the lead early in the second half when Fonseca set up Fábio Matheus in the 48th minute, only for Vinicius Diniz Dall Antonia to rescue a point for the visitors with an 86th-minute strike assisted by Gabriel Feliciano, as the game descended into a flurry of yellow cards.

Sport controlled the game on the numbers, holding 55 percent possession and firing 23 shots to Operário's 16, with an xG of 2.74 against 2.33, and they dominated the second half with 12 shots to seven. Biel Fonseca earned an 8.4 rating with a goal and an assist from midfield, the clear difference-maker. CheckLive's model rated Sport Recife the stronger side, but the result did not confirm that prediction, as Operário's late equaliser earned a share of the spoils. Sport Recife next travel to Goiás on 22 July.
