Série D: Santa Cruz win on penalties, Lusa and Sampaio Corrêa out | OneFootball

The twelve top finishers in the round of 16 of the D Series of the Brazilian Championship are already known.

Highlight for Santa Cruz's classification with suffering.

And for the falls of Portuguesa and Sampaio Corrêa.

Santinha passes on PENALTIES

After losing 1-0 at Arena Batistão, Santa Cruz opened 2-0 at Arena Pernambuco thanks to Thiago Galhardo.

Sergipe discounted with Felipe Pará, taking the decision to penalties.

Rokenedy was one of the characters in Santinha's classification, who took the best 5-4.

The 22-year-old goalkeeper - who placed Felipe Alves on the bench - defended the hits of Felipe Pará and Moisés Ribeiro - which sealed the classification.

Thiago Galhardo converted his. Same case of Luan, ex-Palmeiras, Cruzeiro and Athletico, who defends Sergipe.

But another veteran, Ariel Nahuelpán, 37 years old and who made his debut with Santa Cruz, wasted.

Santinha will have Altos ahead in the round of 16. He had already won in the first leg (5-1) and beat Independência again: he did 3-1 at home.

Surprise in São Paulo

Leader of Group A6 in the qualifying phase, Portuguesa fell in full Canindé.

After the 1-0 defeat away from home, Lusa beat Mixto by the same score.

But was surpassed by the Mato Grosso team in the penalty shootout.

Without aim, Lusa even gained a new life after Mixto lost its last two shots, guaranteeing the alternate shots.

But goalkeeper Mota - who had already stood out in the first leg - shone again and the Mato Grosso team did 4-3 to qualify.

Waiting for Cianorte or Joinville in the round of 16 - the return game will be this Sunday.

The "comfort" for Lusa is already having a spot guaranteed in the next D Series for the campaign in Paulistão this year.

Bolívia Querida disappoints

Team with a lot of tradition and that has been in free fall in recent years, Sampaio Corrêa also stayed on the way.

After the 1-1 draw in São Luís, Bolívia Querida was defeated by Manauara 1-0. David Peninha's goal.

Will only play the D Series in 2026 if Maranhão and Imperatriz conquer access to Series C next year.

The Amazonas team will face ASA, who did 2-0 against Ferroviário playing in front of their crowd. He had already triumphed in the first leg.

The Catarinense Barra beat FC Cascavel again, this time 3-0, and passed with 4-0 in the aggregate. Will have Ceilândia ahead.

The Gato Preto dispatched Água Santa by winning 1-0 at Abadião - the first leg was 1-1.

Aparecidense passes with emotion

Maricá returned the 2-1 against Aparecidense playing away from home.

But the team led by Lucio Flavio and who made the best campaign in the qualifying phase sought the 2-2 already in the injury time.

Will be Goiatuba's rival, who beat São José in Rio Grande do Sul 2-1 after the first game draw.

In other words: it will be a duel between teams from the same state. And that didn't do well in the Goiano Championship this year.

There was excitement in Limeira. Inter saw Marcílio Dias score in the fourth minute. He was left with one less at 41', but sought the tie still in the first half.

The expectation was for penalties after the scoreless draw in the first leg, but the home team sought the 2-1 at 95' to classify.

Will have the capixaba Rio Branco, who did 3-0 against Luverdense in a game of three expulsions - two from the Mato Grosso team. The first leg was 0-0.

In the last game of the day, Imperatriz saw Manaus equalize the confrontation after winning 2-0. But took the best in the penalties. Waiting for América de Natal or Juazeirense.
