Volta Redonda beat Ituano 1-0 in the Brasileiro Série C. The only goal came in the 35th minute, when Ygor Catatau converted from Jean Victor's assist. Ituano were unable to find an equaliser.
The first-half strike gave Volta Redonda something to protect, and the match tightened after the break. Lucas Rocha, Matheus Mancini and Caetano were all booked as the game became more scrappy. Ituano pushed forward but could not force the ball in.
Ygor Catatau's goal proved decisive, and Volta Redonda's defence held firm to ensure the three points stayed at home. Without a clear edge in the stats that were available, it was a single piece of quality that settled a tight contest.
