Part 4/9:
As the physical toll of the early season began to wear on both squads, it became apparent through their gameplay. Fatigue set in, leading to lapses in focus. This was particularly evident when Santos failed to capitalize on defensive opportunities throughout the match. With the game approaching its conclusion, it seemed that a tie was inevitable until Rios showcased not only his individual skill but also the collective determination of Palmeiras in the final minutes. The goal demonstrated the importance of remaining alert and seizing the moment, something that both teams struggled with as fatigue set in.
