In what was a tightly contested encounter, EC Bahia emerged victorious against SE Palmeiras with a narrow 1-0 win. The only goal of the match, scored in the second half at 01:33:15, was a testament to Bahia's effective offensive execution. Palmeiras, despite having more corner opportunities, with a count of 6 compared to Bahia's 4, failed to capitalize on set-pieces, highlighting their struggles in converting dead-ball situations into scoring chances.

Palmeiras displayed a greater tendency to be caught offside, flagged 4 times against Bahia's 1. This lack of discipline in their attacking movements impeded their ability to sustain pressure and create clear-cut chances. Bahia's solid defensive line maintained a high level of concentration throughout, frustrating Palmeiras' forwards and maintaining their strategic positioning effectively to limit offside threats.

Disciplinary actions also had a subtle but meaningful impact on the game's tempo and flow. With EC Bahia accumulating more yellow cards, two of them occurring within a minute of each other after the goal was scored, this briefly raised the match's tension. Yet, it did not significantly disrupt Bahia's defensive resilience or alter the outcome. Palmeiras’ inability to take advantage of this momentary lapse in Bahia's discipline underscores areas where they must seek improvement in exploiting opponents' vulnerabilities.
