Two late goals seal a 3-3 classic in Curitiba
Round 27 produced 33 goals across 10 matches, led by Coritiba and Atletico Paranaense’s extraordinary 3-3 draw. Coritiba moved ahead through Luiz Gustavo, Arthur Dias and Tiago Coser, but Atletico Paranaense responded through Kevin Viveros’s 63rd-minute penalty. Rodrigo Moledo then struck twice in the 90th minute to complete his brace and rescue a point for Coritiba. The result featured six goals and a decisive late turnaround.
The draw kept Atletico Paranaense third on 46 points, level with fourth-placed Bahia. Coritiba’s position is not included in the supplied standings.
Flamengo stay top as Palmeiras keep pace
Flamengo defeated Corinthians 2-1 after falling behind in the scoring. Lucas Paquetá put Flamengo ahead in the 48th minute, Gui Negão equalised in the 78th, and Bruno Henrique scored the winner in the 89th. Bruno Henrique was one of the round’s three players with two goals, alongside Moledo and Vitoria’s Carlos Renê de Sousa Ferreira.
The victory left Flamengo first with 57 points, a record of 17 wins, six draws and four defeats, and a goal difference of 31. Palmeiras matched that points total by beating Sao Paulo 2-0. Murilo Cerqueira Paim scored just before half-time, while Vitor Roque added the second five minutes after the restart. Palmeiras remain second despite having nine draws and three defeats, compared with Flamengo’s six draws and four losses. Their goal difference is 26.
Bahia rise among the leading pack
Bahia edged Remo 2-1. Jean Lucas opened the scoring in the 20th minute, before Luciano Juba and Vitor Bueno both converted penalties in the 90th minute. Bahia’s three points put them on 46, level with Atletico Paranaense and ahead of fifth-placed Fluminense, who have 45.
Fluminense suffered a 3-1 defeat at Atletico-MG. Reinier Jesus Carvalho and Tomás Cuello scored in a two-minute spell early in the second half, Vitor Fernandes Chaves Teixeira made it 3-0 in the 81st minute, and Rodrigo Castillo completed the scoring in the 90th. Fluminense therefore lost ground within the top five, while the supplied standings place Atletico-MG outside that group.
Vasco and Santos claim valuable wins
Vasco DA Gama came from behind to beat Gremio 2-1. Mathias Villasanti gave Gremio a 39th-minute lead, but Thiago Mendes equalised in the 76th and Facundo Colidio completed the turnaround four minutes later.
Santos also overturned a deficit to defeat Cruzeiro 2-1. Benjamín Rollheiser put Santos ahead in the 28th minute, Fabrício Bruno scored an own goal for the second in the 32nd, and Matheus Pereira pulled one back in the 90th. Cruzeiro remain sixth on 42 points with a goal difference of zero, three points behind Fluminense.
International race and relegation picture
Internacional won 2-1 at Chapecoense-sc, with Bruno Henrique scoring in the 25th minute, Maurício Garcez equalising just before half-time and Johan Carbonero producing the winner in the 67th. Internacional’s victory leaves them 18th on 28 points, while Chapecoense-sc remain bottom on 18 with three wins, nine draws, 15 defeats and a minus-24 goal difference. Remo are 19th on 23 points after their defeat by Bahia, with five wins, eight draws and 15 losses.
The round also saw Botafogo draw 1-1 with RB Bragantino after L. Monzon’s 30th-minute own goal and Vitinho’s 56th-minute equaliser. Mirassol and Vitoria finished 2-2: Carlos Renê de Sousa Ferreira scored twice inside the opening 12 minutes, Bruno Santos de Oliveira reduced the deficit in the 68th, and Edson Carioca equalised in the 90th. The results kept the focus on a crowded upper group and a three-team fight at the bottom of the supplied table.
