Remo’s 3-0 loss to Corinthians left the club three points from safety, with defender Marllon suspended and teammate Tchamba out injured. Coach Léo Conde reshuffled the back line, debuting new signing Zé Ivaldo and pairing him with Matheus. The team’s next fixtures against Vitória and Atlético-MG were set to be decisive. In early August, the club faced a deeper defensive crisis. Tchamba, still in the transition phase of his rehabilitation, passed recent physical tests but remained unavailable for the 17 August clash with Internacional. The Superior Tribunal de Justiça Desportiva (STJD) fined Remo R$10,000 for disorder after the Copa do Brasil second-leg against Santos and suspended football supervisor Diego Ziegg for 15 days. Marllon received a one-match ban for a red card in the same game, while Zé Ivaldo missed the next league match after accruing a third yellow card. Consequently, Remo entered its Série A match against Atlético-MG without Marllon, Tchamba, or Ivaldo in the back line, leaving only Léo Andrade as the regular centre-back option. On 7 August, Remo hosted Atlético-MG at Belém’s Mangueirão for the 22nd round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. Despite missing key defenders Marllon and Zé Ivaldo, Remo took an early lead in the 3rd minute through Jajá. Atlético-MG responded in the first half with goals from Reinier in the 34th minute and Bernard in the 38th minute to take a 2-1 lead. Gabriel Taliari equalized for Remo in the 29th minute of the second half. The 2-2 draw left Remo in 18th place in the relegation zone with 22 points, while Atlético-MG moved to 9th place with 29 points. Following the match, the Remo official website was targeted by a cyberattack from the Umbrella Gang. The hackers defaced the site using satirical imagery related to a recent controversy involving Remo's president and player Neymar.
