In a closely contested Campeonato Paulista A3 match, SE Itapirense snatched a 2-1 victory against Comercial FC RP. The early breakthrough by Comercial, scoring in the 26th minute, indicated their initial dominance. However, Itapirense's ability to level the score early in the second half and subsequently take the lead late in the game demonstrated their resilience and strategic adjustments. This shift in momentum can be correlated with their effective utilization of set pieces, resulting in seven corner kicks that pressured Comercial's defence significantly.

A crucial aspect of Itapirense's win was their disciplined execution despite accumulating four yellow cards. This aggression was tactically managed to disrupt Comercial's attacking flow without resulting in significant numerical disadvantage on the field until the latter stages. In contrast, Comercial's discipline issues were more detrimental, resulting in two players receiving red cards. Playing with fewer men substantially weakened their defensive structure and limited their attacking options, eventually proving to be their downfall against a determined Itapirense side.

Comercial's tactical approach initially capitalized on their higher number of corner kicks, totalling eight, which created multiple goal-scoring opportunities. Nevertheless, their inability to capitalize on these set pieces or offside opportunities—of which they had three—highlighted their inefficiency in clinical finishing and ultimate lack of precision. Meanwhile, Itapirense's clean and strategic game plan allowed them to avoid offside traps throughout the match, indicating a cohesive and disciplined attacking unit that ultimately led them to secure the comeback victory.
