Rodrigo Ferreira and Mário Sergio scored as São Bernardo beat Ponte Preta 2-0 in the Brasileiro Série B, a victory that sets up a home clash with Londrina next. Jemerson was the standout player for the visitors, though his afternoon was not without blemish.

The deadlock was broken on the stroke of half-time when Rodrigo Ferreira fired São Bernardo ahead, and the away side controlled the early exchanges thereafter. Ponte Preta's hopes unravelled on 76 minutes when Sergio Palacios collected a second yellow card and was dismissed, and Mário Sergio sealed the win from Pedro Vitor's assist three minutes later.

São Bernardo shaded possession with 51% and were the more dangerous side on expected goals, posting 1.21 against Ponte Preta's 0.64, and they dominated corners nine to two. The hosts improved after the interval, registering eight second-half shots, but the damage was done. Jemerson earned a 7.6 rating as a defender, the highest of any player on the pitch, anchoring a back line that kept a clean sheet despite his booking.
