Madureira
Águia de Marabá
Águia de Marabá secured a crucial Copa do Brasil victory with a disciplined away performance, striking just before halftime through Felipe Pará's well-taken goal. The visitors absorbed early pressure from Madureira, who picked up two yellow cards in the opening 42 minutes, before capitalizing on their chances. Felipe Pará's strike on the stroke of halftime proved to be the decisive moment, though he was cautioned early in the second half for time-wasting. Both teams made wholesale changes after the hour mark as Madureira desperately searched for an equalizer, but Águia de Marabá's defensive organization held firm to claim a valuable away win in this cup tie.
