Match in Five Sentences: Remo and Atlético Mineiro drew 2-2 in the Brasileirão at Estádio Estadual Jornalista Edgar Augusto Proença. In the third minute, Jandir Breno Souza Silva drove a right-footed effort from outside the box into the bottom corner to give the hosts the lead. Galo flipped it as Reinier levelled (34.) and Bernard put them ahead (38.), before Gabriel Bill found Leão Azul's equaliser (74.), and a VAR check then denied Galo a penalty (77.). Atlético-MG saw more of the ball with 58.6% possession but managed only two shots on target to the hosts' four. Leão Azul visit Internacional next, while Galo face RB Bragantino in the Sudamericana before hosting Grêmio in the league.

Player of the Match: Jajá set the tone with an early goal and drove Leão Azul on with three successful dribbles and two shots on target.

Stat of the Match: Atlético-MG had 58.6% possession but produced only two shots on target, a control-without-cutting-edge snapshot.

Three Things We Learned: Ángelo Preciado anchored Galo's right, making six tackles and supplying the cross for their first equaliser. Leão Azul's bench changed the picture, with Vitor Bueno creating the second half leveller (74.). The result lifts the hosts from 19th to 18th in the table.
