The 4-2 victory of Palmeiras over Monte Roraima on Monday was marked by a gross refereeing error at Arena Barueri. In the teams' debut in the Copinha, the fourth goal of the alviverde team was clearly validated incorrectly.
At 30 minutes into the second half, right after a goal by Monte Roraima that made the score 3-2, the refereeing appeared negatively. Defender Arthur attempted a shot from outside the area, the ball hit the crossbar and bounced on the field without crossing the line. But referee Vinícius Pinto Tonollo validated the goal.

In another contested play by the Roraima team, at 12 minutes into the second half, when the match was still tied 1-1, Palmeiras scored with Fabio. In the play, the opposing team's players complained about a handball before the finish.
With the victory, Palmeiras took the lead in Group 27 of the Copinha, having the same number of points as Remo, but with an advantage in goals scored.
