A vaga nas semifinais da LNF (Liga Nacional de Futsal) é do Jaraguá, e ela veio de forma dramática. O atual bicampeão virou sobre o Praia Clube em Uberlândia, na noite deste sábado, e o nome do jogo foi Marcênio, autor de um hat-trick no 4 a 2.
O time catarinense chegou a estar dois gols atrás, buscou o empate ainda no primeiro tempo, teve um gol corretamente anulado nos segundos finais do tempo normal e resolveu tudo na prorrogação.
O primeiro tempo teve quatro gols e muita intensidade. Rafinha, aos 12, e Andrezinho, aos três, abriram vantagem para os donos da casa. Marcênio respondeu com dois gols em cinco minutos, aos 14 e aos 19, deixando tudo igual.
No segundo tempo, de trocação, o empate resistiu até o fim. A 59 segundos do apito, Marcênio interceptou no meio da quadra um passe de Gian Wolverine e mandou para o gol vazio, mas o Vídeo Suporte apontou toque de braço e a arbitragem anulou o lance, levando a decisão para a prorrogação.
Se parou no vídeo no tempo normal, na prorrogação ele foi imparável: virou o placar e confirmou o hat-trick. O Praia tentou reagir, e a vaga ficou com os catarinenses; eles ampliaram nos segundos finais, em tiro livre cobrado por Pedrinho.
O Jaraguá enfrenta o Magnus na próxima fase, com datas a definir. Na outra semifinal, o São Lourenço espera o vencedor de Atlântico e Carlos Barbosa.
