Events
Match Events
- 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — CA Paranaense and EC Vitória get this one started.
- 5' Carlos Teran has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 8' Luiz Gustavo is having his name booked by the referee on 8.
- 12' A meaty challenge results in booking for Edenilson on 12.
- 17' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 22' Carlos Rene does the damage! The net is bulging and EC Vitoria surge ahead!
- 27' Kevin Viveros has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 12 goals to his name this season.
- 32' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 34' Kevin Viveros doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 39' EC Vitória are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 43' Leandro Martinez has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 43.
- 46' EC Vitoria ring the changes. Edenilson has done his job and it is now time for Ronald to step up.
- 51' CA Paranaense are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined EC Vitória backline.
- 55' The referee has no hesitation. Gaston Benavidez is booked for CA Paranaense — card on 55.
- 60' The 18-year-old Bruno Ramos has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 63' Dudu is replacing Joao Victor for the CA Paranaense side.
- 68' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Arthur Dias.
- 73' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Edenilson suffering a number of foals already.
- 74' Another change for EC Vitoria made on 74 minute. Carlos Rene leaves to be changed by Fabricio.
- 79' It is a substitution in CA Paranaense team. Juan Portilla is replaced by Bruno Zapelli on 79 minute.

- 87' Ze Vitor has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 87.
- 90' That looks like a foul for a card for Santos.
- 90' A change in the CA Paranaense ranks — Stiven Mendoza exits the field as Renan Peixoto enters on 90.
- Game over. The scoreline of 3-1 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
