Match in Five Sentences: Chapecoense drew 1-1 with Vitória at Arena Condá. In the 87th minute, Neto Pessoa glanced in a header from a Marcos cross to put Chape ahead. Deep into second half stoppage time, Matheuzinho won and converted a penalty to level for Leão da Barra, despite Edenilson's straight red earlier (38.). Verdão do Oeste registered 25 attempts and 57.8% possession, yet could not find a second goal. Chape visit Athletico Paranaense next, while Leão da Barra face Juazeirense in the Copa do Nordeste before hosting São Paulo in the league.
Player of the Match: Enio drove Chape's attack, delivering six key passes, winning seven fouls and testing Lucas Arcanjo twice.
Stat of the Match: Rafael Santos produced eight saves, a haul that kept Verdão do Oeste in front until late.
Three Things We Learned: Verdão do Oeste fired 25 attempts and won nine corners, underpinning long spells of pressure. Leão da Barra were clinical, registering nine shots on target from 15 attempts and rescuing a point via that stoppage-time penalty. Edenilson's dismissal (38.) left Nêgo a man down for the rest of the game, yet they still emerged with a draw.
