Furacão, meanwhile, lifted the U-17 Copa do Brasil trophy in May. In the final, they beat Atlético-MG 4–3 on penalties at Arena MRV, also in Belo Horizonte, following a 2–2 draw in regulation time.
The U-17 Super Cup will be decided in a single match. Like the U-20 Super Cup, it had not been held for five years. Its three editions took place between 2019 and 2021. In the first, Copa do Brasil winners Palmeiras defeated Brazilian Championship winners Flamengo 4–3 on aggregate.
In 2020, the clash between the two tricolor clubs, São Paulo and Fluminense, ended in victory for the São Paulo side. The teams drew 1–1 after 90 minutes, but São Paulo, the Copa do Brasil champions, won 4–2 on penalties. Finally, in 2021, Flamengo were automatically crowned champions after winning both the Brazilian Championship and the Copa do Brasil in the age group.
