Fluminense’s Rodrigo Castillo scores early against Santos

Fluminense’s Rodrigo Castillo scored in the third minute of their Brazilian league match against Santos at the Maracanã.

Before kickoff, Santos striker Gabigol showed Fluminense fans his two Libertadores tattoos, recalling titles he won with Flamengo.

He was taunting Fluminense, who have won the tournament once.

Gabigol has scored 15 career goals against Fluminense, including four for Santos and 11 for Flamengo.

Fluminense began the match fourth in the league with 51 points, while Santos were eighth with 42.

Santos are chasing a place in next season’s Libertadores, so points away from home matter to their hopes.
