Fluminense and Bahia played out a goalless draw in the Brasileiro Série A, a result that flattered the visitors. The home side completely dominated proceedings, registering 25 shots and 58 percent possession, but were unable to find a way past a stubborn Bahia defence and goalkeeper.
There were no goals to report, but Fluminense created three big chances and missed all of them, while Bahia failed to muster a single shot on target across the 90 minutes. Ignácio and Erick Pulga both received yellow cards for Bahia, who spent much of the game under pressure.
The standout statistic was the 10 saves made by the Bahia goalkeeper, keeping his side in the match despite facing 11 shots on target. Fluminense's expected goals of 2.38 underlined their dominance, but a lack of cutting edge in front of goal meant they had to settle for a point.
