The match took place on August 31, 2016, at the Arena Condá in front of 3,725 spectators. The Chapecoense had been defeated 1-0 in the first leg of the match six days earlier, so they needed to overturn the deficit at home. However, things looked even more complicated when Douglas Mendes opened the scoring for Cuiabá in the first half.
The reaction from the Chapecoense began 21 minutes into the second half, when Lucas Gomes equalized after Arthur Maia's free kick hit the post. The equalizer still kept Cuiabá in the lead in the aggregate score, but Bruno Rangel soon put the Chapecoense ahead in the match and equalized the aggregate score at 2-2. Bruno Rangel then scored his second goal of the night after a cross from Dener, securing a 3-1 victory for the Chapecoense and advancing them to the quarterfinals of the Copa Sul-Americana.
This victory marked a significant moment in the Chapecoense's historic campaign in the 2016 Copa Sul-Americana. Bruno Rangel's performance reinforced his connection with important nights for the Chapecoense in the competition. A year earlier, in 2015, he had also scored the two goals in a 2-1 victory over River Plate in the quarterfinals of the Copa Sul-Americana.
The Chapecoense's next challenge in the Copa Sul-Americana would be against Independiente, one of the giants of the continent. The two teams drew 0-0 in both matches, and the Chapecoense advanced to the quarterfinals after winning the penalty shootout 5-4, with Danilo making four crucial saves.
