Juventude and Fortaleza played out a goalless draw in Brasileiro Série B, with the home side doing most of the attacking but failing to find a finish. The match was tight in midfield, but Juventude created the clearer chances and will wonder how they did not take at least one.
There were no goals to report, though the game was not without incident. Lucas Mineiro was booked in the 29th minute, Titi in the 62nd, Marcos Paulo in the 69th and Pierre in the 77th, as the referee kept a firm hold on the contest.
Juventude dominated the shooting stats, racking up 15 attempts to Fortaleza's seven, with four on target against two. They also created two big chances and accumulated 1.55 expected goals, but Fortaleza's goalkeeper made four saves to keep the visitors in the game. Fortaleza never really threatened, yet they held on for a point.
