Atlético-MG reaches Copa do Brasil quarterfinals with last‑minute goal

On 4 August 2026, Atlético‑MG faced Juventude in the second leg of the Copa do Brasil round of 16 at Estádio Alfredo Jaconi in Caxias do Sul. The first‑leg match had ended 0‑0, so the tie was set to be decided by a single goal or a penalty shoot‑out.

Alan Minda scored the decisive goal in the 49th minute of the second half after a defensive mishap in which Juventude’s Gabriel Pinheiro and Nathan collided heads, leaving the ball for Minda to finish. Referee Flávio Rodrigues de Souza oversaw the match. Atlético‑MG won 1‑0 on aggregate, securing a place in the quarter‑finals and awaiting a CBF draw to determine their next opponent.

The victory also brings a R$ 4 million prize and keeps Atlético‑MG in contention for the 2027 Libertadores spot.
