The match between Guarani SP and AD Confiança SE was a closely contested encounter, eventually won by the home team with a narrow 1-0 margin. Guarani SP struck early, with a goal in only the 40th second of the game, which set the tone for a defensive, scrappy affair. This early goal was crucial as it allowed Guarani SP to adopt a defensive strategy, effectively protecting their lead throughout the match.

Statistically, both teams struggled to generate consistent attacking threats. Guarani SP had a marginally better offensive output with three corner kicks compared to Confiança SE’s one. Surprisingly, Guarani managed to maintain discipline concerning offsides, registering none throughout the game, unlike Confiança SE who was caught offside once. The significance of these statistics is partly diminished by the high card count, demonstrating aggressive play and frequent fouls that disrupted game flow and limited clear goal-scoring opportunities.

Disciplinary issues heavily influenced the match's dynamics, with the referee distributing a total of eight yellow cards. Guarani SP received five yellow cards, showing their aggressive stance to break Confiança's attacking momentum. However, Confiança SE’s indiscipline proved costlier, leading to their most significant setback—a red card in the second half, further diminishing their capability to mount a comeback. The reduction in players severely limited their tactical flexibility and attacking prowess, ultimately allowing Guarani to secure the victory.
