EC São Bernardo secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Lemense FC in a tightly contested match, with São Bernardo's effective teamwork and tactical discipline making the difference. The home team started strong, breaking the deadlock in the first half with a well-timed goal that showcased their ability to capitalize on early pressure. São Bernardo’s opening goal at the 34th minute set the tone, allowing them to control the pace and maintain their lead into halftime. They extended their advantage with a second goal in the 74th minute, demonstrating their prowess in transitioning from midfield to attack.

Lemense FC struggled to maintain their composure, as evidenced by the trio of yellow cards issued in the span of seven minutes. This lack of discipline culminated in a red card, significantly affecting their ability to mount a comeback. Despite pulling a goal back in the 88th minute, their earlier defensive lapses and inability to exploit set pieces hampered their quest for an equalizer. Both teams had five corner kicks, yet none resulted in goals, highlighting missed opportunities for Lemense.

Offside calls were a significant factor, with São Bernardo caught offside five times compared to Lemense’s once, indicating a more aggressive forward push by the home team. However, this did not deter São Bernardo’s offensive momentum, thanks partly to their organized defense and ability to disrupt Lemense's rhythm. Ultimately, São Bernardo’s cohesive unit, tactically sound defense, and effective exploitation of Lemense’s mistakes secured their deserved victory.
