Chapecoense Relegated After 2-1 Defeat to Mirassol in Brasileirão

Chapecoense was officially relegated from the 2026 Campeonato Brasileiro following a 2-1 defeat to Mirassol on November 3, 2026, at the Arena Condá in Chapecó. This loss confirmed Chapecoense as the first team to be relegated this season, with the club only managing 21 points and remaining last in the league standings.

The match began promisingly for Chapecoense, who took the lead in the 12th minute through Kauan's header from a corner kick. Mirassol pressed hard, and although Reinaldo initially missed a penalty by hitting the post, he redeemed himself before halftime by converting another penalty to equalize. The decisive moment came in the second half when Chapecoense goalkeeper Anderson made a critical error, unintentionally scoring an own goal after fumbling a long-range shot from Shaylon.

This victory propelled Mirassol to 12th place with 40 points, distancing themselves from relegation concerns. Meanwhile, Chapecoense's failure to secure points sealed their fate, ending hopes of remaining in Brazil's top football division this season.

The defeat continues a difficult campaign for Chapecoense, highlighting the challenges the club has faced throughout the season. Mirassol's climb up the standings brings some relief as they push towards mid-table security.
