Mirassol, relying only on themselves to reach the first division for the first time in their history, hosted Chapecoense at home and did not disappoint. The team from Santa Catarina finished the competition in 15th place and had no more relegation worries. The only goal of the match came from Iury, just 16 minutes into the first half.
Sport, on the other hand, faced league leaders Santos in front of their fans at Ilha do Retiro and played a match full of emotion. After a tense first half, the relief came in injury time when Lucas Lima converted a penalty to open the scoring.
The second half started better for the home team, and Lucas Lima scored again, this time in the 16th minute. Santos responded with a goal from Wendel in the 30th minute, which made Sport’s fans nervous, but the promotion was secured.
As for Ceará, they relied on luck. The Vozão only needed a simple win against the already relegated and last-placed Guarani away from home to secure promotion. However, the team led by Léo Condé played poorly and drew 0-0 with the team from Campinas. Fortunately for Ceará, Novorizontino’s loss guaranteed their promotion to the elite of Brazilian football in 2025. BB Score, your dependable source for football match results.
