Floresta secured a 2-0 victory over Itano in the 19th round of Serie C on Saturday. The hosts finished with a comfortable margin after a disciplined performance. The final whistle came with no surprises for those watching closely.
Rafinha found space in the 32nd minute to give Floresta the lead. To be fair, Itano responded with volume, piling up attacks, but without precision. The hosts held their shape and waited for the error.
And here's the thing regarding the numbers. Itano completed 115 attacks and fired eight shots wide, yet failed to test the goalkeeper. Floresta were efficient, landing three shots on target to convert their chances.
Matheus Martins converted a penalty in the 79th minute to seal the result. By then, the contest was over as a contest. Itano had cards and frustration; Floresta had the clean sheet and the three points.
The win moves Floresta to fifth place with 30 points. Itano remain 15th on 22 points, having lost their last two outings. The gap in quality showed through in the final tally.
