Atlético-GO and Ponte Preta draw 1-1 in Série B match

Atlético-GO and Ponte Preta played to a 1-1 draw in a Série B match held at the Ítalo Mário Limongi stadium in Indaiatuba. Ponte Preta took the lead in the 42nd minute of the first half with a goal by David da Hora. Atlético-GO secured the equalizer late in the second half, with João Pedro scoring in the 41st minute.

The match drew attention due to an improvised scoreboard. Following heavy rains in São Paulo that damaged the electronic scoreboard, the stadium used a banner attached to the perimeter fence with slots for manual number updates.

With this result, Atlético-GO remains in the provisional sixth position, keeping them in contention for the access playoffs, though they face pressure from competitors like CRB and Sport. Ponte Preta, which has already been relegated to Série C, remains at the bottom of the table with 14 points.
