How the match went

Vitória was superior to their rival during the first half and opened the scoring at 19 minutes with a deadly counterattack. Matheuzinho found Ramon, who broke down the left wing and found Baralhas unmarked, almost in the six-yard box, to tap it into the back of the net. At the end of the first 45 minutes, Bahia’s fans booed the team as they left the field.

The Tricolor de Aço leveled the score shortly after the break. At eight minutes, Acevedo crossed to the far post, William José headed it back across goal, and Jean Lucas finished into the net.

At the 20-minute mark, Acevedo broke into the box from the right, received the ball, and crossed it low. William José let it run and the ball found Jean Lucas, who turned the game around for the home side. Vitória tried to chase the equalizer but was not efficient and saw their rival take the title.
