The match

Just 3 minutes into the game, center-back Ronaldo Henrique was shown a red card after pulling Ian Visentin back during a quick play, which meant Timão played virtually the entire match with one man fewer. Despite the numerical advantage, the opposing team found it difficult to create chances, and the score remained goalless until halftime.

Santos controlled the action for most of the game and opened the scoring 4 minutes into the second half through number 9 Ian Visentin, who got on the end of Davi Carvalho’s cross and sent it into the back of the net. Shortly afterward, in the 10th minute of the second half, the team from Baixada doubled their lead again through the center-forward, who this time was set up by Evandro.

Corinthians responded in the 19th minute of the second half with Léo Amistá. After number 10’s own shot struck the hand of a Santos defender, the referee awarded a penalty. Amistá stepped up and calmly sent the goalkeeper the wrong way, scoring Alvinegro’s first goal at CT Rei Pelé. Even with late pressure, Timão could not find the equalizer.
