Mirassol vs Lanús

Mirassol marked their historic Copa Libertadores debut with a 1-0 victory over Lanús at the Estádio José Maria de Campos Maia, delivering an emphatic statement on their first night in Group G. João Victor's header in the 59th minute — set up by Reinaldo's pinpoint corner — proved to be the decisive moment. Mirassol had already seen a Neto Moura goal correctly chalked off by VAR just minutes earlier. Lanús compounded their misery when Tomás Guidara was shown a red card in the 88th minute, leaving the Argentine side to see out the final moments with ten men. The three points are historic for Mirassol, who claimed their first-ever Libertadores win in their debut continental campaign. For Lanús, a defeat combined with a late dismissal makes for a very tough opening night in Group G.
