Needing three goals to take the match to penalties, São José started the match by launching themselves on the attack. The opponents had their first chance after two minutes, with a shot from inside the area, but Jully made a beautiful save.
At 22, Bruna Calderan crossed to Ary, who opened the scoring for Verdão. At 33, São José tied the game with Calhau.
On the lap of the second half, the game turned. Ju Oliveira fired a beautiful shot that hit the angle of the Palestinian goal. Palmeiras was not shaken and had two chances to change the score, but goalkeeper Zany was inspired and prevented the nets from being shaken.
