In the only other match of the evening, home team Figueirense came back from an early deficit to beat America-MG 2-1.

The visiting team scored the first half's only goal in the 36th minute when Rodriguinho slammed in a point-blank shot against keeper Wilson.

Returning to the second half, Julio Cesar scored twice to give his team the win and increase its current undefeated streak to nine games.
