Part 2/6:
Observers noted that the match was relatively discreet, mainly due to the lack of intensity often seen in friendly games. The players had only recently begun training and were not physically or mentally prepared for a competitive matchup. Mario Casagrande highlighted this point, suggesting that the players were unable to demonstrate their full capabilities right out of the gate.
When examining individual performances, Fagner's aggressive style of play stood out, reminiscent of his typical behavior on the field. He made a notable tackle on a São Paulo player that caught attention. While his aggressive tendencies may not align with the friendly nature of the match, they nevertheless sparked some excitement on the pitch.
