Atlético Mineiro came from behind to beat arch-rivals Cruzeiro 2-1 at the Mineirão stadium in today’s Minas Gerais State Championship semi-final second leg.
Uruguayan midfielder Giorgian De Arrascaeta fired hosts Cruzeiro into a first-half lead, but Argentinian forward Lucas Pratto equalised for Galo with 55 minutes gone. Cruzeiro defender Fabiano then saw red for throwing an elbow, before in the game’s 90th minute Pratto met Guilherme’s cross with a bullet header to send Atlético into the final.
