Atlético-MG is seeking a third consecutive title in the competition.

The match took place at Arena MRV, the new home of Galo in Belo Horizonte, and was not particularly exciting over the 90 minutes, as the mineiros effectively utilized the advantage gained from the first leg. Prior to the international break, at Morumbi, the team managed by Gabriel Milito secured the victory with a header goal by defender Rodrigo Battaglia in stoppage time of the second half.
The current champions, São Paulo, struggled to put pressure on the hosts, and their coach, Luis Zubeldía, faced significant criticism for delaying substitutions in pursuit of a satisfactory result.
With the quarterfinals set, the Copa do Brasil bracket looks like this: Flamengo will face Corinthians, and Atlético Mineiro will play against Vasco da Gama. The matches promise to be thrilling and intense, as all four teams have previously won the tournament—Flamengo four times, Corinthians three times, Atlético Mineiro twice, and Vasco once.
