In the first match of the 17th round of the Brasileirao, Paranaense and Internacional played to a goalless draw at the Joaquim Américo Guimarães Stadium and missed the opportunity to stay at the top of the table.
The match was very even overall. Both teams had the same number of chances to open the scoring, but lacked effectiveness in their finishing and could only manage to keep one point.
The most striking action of the match occurred in the 60th minute when the VAR intervened to disallow a goal by Uruguayan David Terans, one of Paranaense’s star players in the match.
With this result, the team coached by Luiz Felipe Scolari is in fourth place with 28 points, while Internacional is in third place with 29 points.

Ceará equalized in the 28th minute through Bruno Pacheco’s goal and, 5 minutes later, they scored the second goal through Vinicius Goes Barbosa de Souza.

Finally, Palmeiras regained the lead in the Brazilian championship, which had been momentarily taken away from them by Atlético Mineiro, after a very good but complicated victory in this match against Cuiabá, with a score of 1-0.
Palmeiras was obliged to take the 3 points in this match after Atlético Mineiro’s victory last Sunday.
The home team managed to dominate the entire match but struggled to generate dangerous chances to convert them into goals. We give credit to Cuiabá’s solid defense.
It was not until the 59th minute when Gabriel Veron scored the goal that gave Palmeiras the victory in this match and thus ended the bad streak the team had been having in the last few weeks.
After this result, Palmeiras retakes the lead in the Brasileirao, while Cuiabá dropped to #15 in the standings.
Result: Palmeiras (1) – (0) Cuiabá
