Ten-man Remo fall to late Rony strike as Santos progress in Copa do Brasil
Santos beat Remo 1-0 at Estadio Evandro Almeida in the Copa do Brasil Round of 16, a result built on a numerical advantage that lasted well beyond the hour mark. The tie remained goalless at half-time despite the hosts being reduced to ten men before the half-hour was up.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Remo's task became far harder in the 28th minute when Marllon was sent off, leaving Conde Leo's side to defend for over an hour with a man fewer. Santos, managed by Cuca, dominated possession and territory thereafter but could not find a breakthrough until the 74th minute, when Rony converted a Neymar assist to make it 0-1, a lead the visitors held to the final whistle.
The statistics reflected the imbalance created by the red card, with Santos enjoying 69% of possession and outshooting Remo 16 to 12, including five shots on target to three. Remo were also the more heavily booked side, picking up five yellow cards to Santos's one, as the hosts fouled more often while chasing the game short-handed.
Adonis Frías was rated the top performer on the pitch at 7.5, followed closely by teammate Christian Oliva on 7.3, both part of a Santos side that controlled the contest after Remo's dismissal.
Santos's 69% share of possession underlined how thoroughly they controlled the ball once Remo were down to ten men.
Santos won 1–0 away against Remo (half-time 0–0).

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Remo 39%, the draw 29%, Santos 32%. It finished Remo 0–1 Santos.
Level sides, home ground holds off Santos' control of the ball — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Remo's 39% is home ground and little else. The draw at 29% is what level sides usually produce.
Why Remo in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1573 to 1609. Sides this close won 43.2% of 15,755 home games (draw 26.7%, visitors 30.1%).
Why only 39%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Santos hold 10 more possession points (51 to 41 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, when the visitors held this control edge the home team's win rate fell to 40.4% across 5,518 games, from 44.0% when styles were level. Remo scored +0.45 goals per game beyond chance-quality — home sides this hot gave some of it back. Opponents of hot-finishing home sides won 28.3% of 1,443 games, vs 27.9% against normal finishing.
Why the draw at 29%?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.7%. These teams' recent games average 2.7 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,478. The goals environment adds 1.4 points to the draw. The control factor adds 1.3 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Remo are missing their first-choice keeper and 1 more regular starter — Marcelo Rangel, Marllon — about 27% of their usual starting-XI weight. Our measured receipt covers one-sided absences only, and the picture here isn't one-sided — both squads are short. Remo have played 3+ games in the last two weeks; their opponents haven't. Between equals, congested home sides won 47.0% of 2412 measured games and congested visitors 28.2% of 2452 — the cells disagree with each other and with the flat rest table, so schedule stays a watch item at 0 points.
