The match was played at Cícero de Souza Marques and was valid for the 22nd round of the competition.
Check out the highlights below.
A sleepy first half…
There was a lack of inspiration from both sides in a first half with little football.
Corinthians only threatened through Gabriel Paulista right at the start.
And Massa Bruta did so after a passing move that ended with Pitta finishing without causing any major problems for Hugo Souza.
What was that, Volpi? 🤯
Juninho Capixaba took a throw-in, got the ball back and chose to play it back to Thiago Volpi.
But the Massa Bruta goalkeeper made a terrible mistake when trying to hoof it clear.

He completely whiffed it, leaving Garro with an easy finish to put SCCP ahead (59′).
Mancini’s men did try to respond. But they only hit Hugo Souza’s goal once.
And Timão were the ones who proved clinical once again.
Counterattack, a perfect cross from Matheuzinho, and another Pedro Raul goal in the air (87′).
