In the 17th round of the Brasileirao, Jean Lucas showcased his talent by netting two goals in Bahia’s 3-0 triumph over Juventude. He beat the goalkeeper twice — first in the 26th minute of the first half and again in the 58th minute of the second half, illustrating his skill in scoring from open play and marking a stellar day on the pitch. Luciano Rodríguez joined the scoring spree with a goal shortly after halftime, in the 48th minute.
Jean Lucas was undoubtedly the standout player of the match, contributing significantly with his two goals and attempting four shots on target.
Another key performer was Ademir, who also tried his luck at goal, hitting the target twice throughout the match.
Bahia’s head coach, Rogério Ceni, strategically set up a 4-5-1 formation with Ronaldo in goal; a defensive line consisting of Santiago Arias, David Duarte, Gabriel Xavier, and Luciano Juba; a midfield featuring Caio Alexandre, Jean Lucas, Ademir, Éverton Ribeiro, and Erick Pulga; and Willian José leading the attack.
On the other side, Juventude, managed by Claudio Tencati, employed a 4-3-3 formation with Gustavo guarding the net; Reginaldo, Wilker Ángel, Abner, and Marcelo Hermes forming the defense; Natã, Hudson, and Jádson in midfield; and Lucas Fernandes, Gabriel Taliari, and Gabriel Verón upfront.
The referee for this match held at the Fonte Nova stadium was Matheus Delgado Candançan.
