The game got off to a busy start at Estádio da Serrinha and, with just eight minutes, the first zero was already on the scoreboard! Apodi received in the area, dominated beautifully and risked a low shot, in the left corner of the goal defended by Cleiton, to score his 3rd goal of the season and open the scoring for Esmeraldino: 1 to 0!
But Bragantino didn’t feel the goal and went for the opponent! At 18 minutes, Sorriso invaded the area, was brought down by Matheus Sales from behind, and the referee called the penalty in favor of Massa Bruta! In the charge, Ytalo kicked high, in the left corner of the goalkeeper Tadeu and left everything the same on the score: 1 to 1!
The teams continued with their respective proposals, while Goiás focused on defending and exploring counterattacks, Bragantino climbed their lines and pressured the hosts. At 30 minutes, Lucas Evangelista risked the shot from outside the area, but sent it out. Then, in the 47th minute, Helinho kicked the ball across the goal, but the ball went over the crossbar. All the same at the end of the first half!

After the break, the first great chance to score was from Goiás. At four minutes, Diego crossed back, close to the baseline and Pedro Raul arrived hitting the goal, but stopped in good defense of goalkeeper Cleiton. After the first arrival of the home team, Bragantino returned to create the main attack chances.
Until, at 17 minutes, Massa Bruta turned the game around! Helinho took a corner from the right and lifted the ball in the area. At the edge of the small area, Luan Cândido went up free of marking and headed firmly to send the ball to the goal, beat the goalkeeper Tadeu and turn the match: 2 to 1 for the paulistas!
At 25 minutes, Léo Ortiz reversed for Tubarão, who served Hyoran inside the area. The midfielder risked the shot to the goal, but ended up hitting the net from the outside.
