Cruzeiro came from behind to beat Flamengo 2-1 in the Brasileiro Série A. Pedro's first-half goal gave Flamengo the lead, but Keny Arroyo levelled after the break and Matheus Pereira struck in the 90th minute to turn the match around.
Flamengo went ahead through Pedro in the 22nd minute, assisted by Giorgian De Arrascaeta. Cruzeiro responded when Keny Arroyo equalised on 55 minutes, with Matheus Henrique the provider. The winner came in the 90th minute, Matheus Pereira finishing from Lucas Villalba's assist.
The stats told a curious story: Flamengo dominated possession with 61% and completed 117 passes to Cruzeiro's 71, yet both sides managed only three shots and none on target. Cruzeiro's expected-goals total (0.25 to 0.19) was marginally higher, and they were the more efficient side on the day. Matheus Pereira's late winner secured a comeback that Flamengo, for all their control, could not prevent.
