Flamengo attempted a comeback in the 14th minute. Wesley crossed, Arrascaeta flicked it onto the far post, and Luiz Araújo fired a first-time shot, drawing a superb save from Neuer. Gradually, Flamengo began to gain more possession and attempted to attack. The better side, Mengão pulled one back in the 32nd minute.
