📹 Inter miss three penalties but progress in Copa do Brasil, watch highlights

A two-time Libertadores champion giant against a small team founded 20 years ago.
This was the backdrop for Maracanã vs Internacional, this Thursday (22), for the second leg of the third round of the Copa do Brasil.
But, as football is this wonderful sport, logic - almost always - is far away.
That's because the goalkeeper Rair, only 26 years old, saved 2 penalties from Colorado and even "unsettled" the kicker on the third opportunity!
📹 Let's go to the highlights!
Still in the first half, Alan Patrick - one of the best players in Brazilian football this season, number 10 and "band" of Inter - tried a dink, but Rair didn't fall!
Alan Patrick bateu o pênalti de cavadinha e se deu mal. Goleiro Rair, do Maracanã, ficou parado e defendeu com facilidade. No jogo de ida contra o Inter, Rair já tinha defendido um pênalti batido por Alan Patrick.

After the break, another penalty for Colorado. This time, it was Wesley who took it, but the Maracanã's goalkeeper made another save!
Se é pênalti, o homem defende! Rair pega mais um em Maracanã x Inter! Desta vez, a cobrança foi de Wesley.

Less than ten minutes later, another penalty for the team from Rio Grande do Sul.
Alan Patrick took the responsibility again, but goalkeeper Rair gave that "catimba" before the shot, saying something to the number 10.
Result, Alan Patrick shot hard, high, taking it well away from the rival goalkeeper, but ended up hitting the crossbar!
Perdeu de novo! Inter desperdiça o terceiro pênalti no jogo contra o Maracanã. Desta vez, Alan Patrick acertou o travessão!

A complete madness!
Even more so because, in the first game, at Beira-Rio, when Inter won 1 x 0, Rair also saved a penalty taken by Alan Patrick.
Social networks, of course, greatly echoed this more than unusual fact!
ACREDITEM, O INTER PERDEU 3 PÊNALTIS NO MESMO JOGO. 😳1° Alan Patrick cavou e o goleiro pegou ❌2° Wesley bateu, o goleiro defendeu e no rebote ele chutou pra fora ❌3° Alan Patrick chutou na trave ❌BIZARRO KKKKKKKKKK

Rair, goleiro do Maracanã, após defender pênalti de cavadinha de Alan Patrick: "Por incrível que pareça, meu pai me falou que ia ter um pênalti hoje, o Alan Patrick ia dar a cavadinha e eu ia defender. Não consigo acreditar ainda".

But the game was not just about the missed penalties!
With "ball rolling", Inter beat Maracanã 3 x 0 and, with 4 x 0 on aggregate, qualified for the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil next opponent will be known through a CBF draw.
