Santos vs Atlético Mineiro

Santos claimed a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Atlético-MG at Vila Belmiro, with substitute Moisés proving the decisive difference in a feisty Série A clash. Moisés broke the deadlock in the 56th minute, converting an assist from Gabriel Barbosa as Neymar pulled the strings in Santos' attacking play. The game had its share of drama: a Santos effort was ruled out after deflecting off Gabigol's arm from an Igor Vinícius shot, and an incensed Cuca was sent to the stands for protesting the decision. Yellow cards were distributed to Gonzalo Escobar, Gabriel Barbosa, and Luan Peres for the hosts, with Lyanco cautioned for the visitors. The result hands Santos their third win of the season and a much-needed confidence boost. For Atlético-MG, who arrived in eighth place on the back of consecutive victories, it's a deflating away loss that puts the brakes on a promising run at the worst time.
