Championship game summary and dramatic change: Bahia - Atletico Mineiro 3: 2 (Sport 1)
Atletico Mineiro waited 50 years for it and tonight (Thursday-Friday) it happened: since 1971 the club has not won the Brazilian Championship, but after a wonderful 2: 3 over Bahia the Blue Horizonte residents took to the streets and celebrated a second championship in history.
Precisely in an away game and after falling behind 2: 0 in the 66th minute, Mineiro woke up and completed within four minutes a turnaround that guaranteed her the title!
In the 73rd minute Holk shrank from the penalty spot, two minutes later Keno equalized and brought Bahia below the red line and in the 77th minute they bought a lamb again, set up 2: 3 and assured his team the championship in the sweetest and perhaps most dramatic way.
In 36 games she lost only 10, with her second best offense in the league and the best defense thanks to other stars like Diego Costa, Eduardo Vargas Nacho Fernandez.

After the game Keno said: "It's been 50 years since our last championship and it's a lot of time, so now we'll celebrate."
The 35-year-old Hulk, who joined the team in February, scored 18 goals and his coach said: "He fit us like a glove, this is a magical year for him and for all of us."
The task of Holk, Keno and Atletico Mineiro will be to win a double and for that they will have to go through two meetings that will be held later this month at Atletico Parnassa.

By the way, one of Atletico Mineiro's sponsors announced that starting today, the team's fans will be able to tattoo themselves for free and leave themselves with a lifelong memory.
It is not possible to specify whether there will be a choice of what to tattoo or what its size will be, but there is no doubt that it will be a tattoo that every fan can be proud of.
