Ubatuba advances in Campeonato Paulista de Fut 7 despite loss

Ubatuba has secured qualification for the next stage of the Campeonato Paulista de Fut 7, despite suffering a 5-3 defeat against Corinthians. The team's advancement was mathematically guaranteed following losses by Taubaté and Nacional.

During the match, Ubatuba missed a penalty opportunity while leading 1-0, but Corinthians ultimately proved more efficient in their finishing. Coach Wagner Richard noted that while the game was highly competitive and featured strong performances from both goalkeepers, the team must correct their errors moving forward.

Ubatuba's path to the quarterfinals depends on their final standing. While the top four teams advance directly, those finishing between 5th and 12th must compete for four remaining spots. Ubatuba still maintains a mathematical possibility of finishing in the top four, though they will need a victory in their final match and specific results from other teams to achieve direct qualification.
