The Brazilian giant Fluminense beat Juventude 1:0 in the 28th round of the Brazilian championship on Friday, and the only scorer, the hardened Thiago Silva, put on an absolute show in the final.
The great stopper, who for many years was the leader of the defense of the biggest European clubs, is tearing up even at the age of 41, so he scored the winning goal in the eighth minute of stoppage time, but also in a great way, writes Teleport.
Namely, Fluminense launched the last attack of the match, and after a cross from the right side into the box, Silva created a sensation, hooked the ball with an acrobatic volley, and it ended up in the net of the visiting goalkeeper Jandrei.

Silva has made 36 appearances for Fluminense in all competitions this season, and that was his third goal.
He constantly provides fantastic games, but his Fluminense is only the seventh team in the championship and dances between the positions that lead to the qualifications for the Copa Libertadores and Copa Sudamericana.
