Match Overview

Mirassol took the lead just two minutes into the game. After a poorly cleared ball by Ceará's defense, Negueba shot but was blocked by the defense. The ball returned to the forward, who this time found the net.

At 22 minutes, Reinaldo extended the lead for the hosts. The left-back took a free kick from the right and surprised goalkeeper Bruno Ferreira, who stood still as the ball hit the back of the net.

Mirassol's third goal came at the 30-minute mark of the second half. Alesson received the ball at the edge of the area and struck a beautiful placed shot into the top corner of Bruno Ferreira's goal, who could do nothing to prevent it. Ceará responded shortly after, but Fabiano Souza's shot hit the post of Walter's goal.
