Spectators: 7680 (Terracing: 5761, Seating: 1766, VIP seats: 153) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Geraldo Bezerra started the match with the kick off. In the 2nd match minute, Paraná Clube was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Hong Wang to maneuver through the defense. Paraná Clube's Žydrūnas Kšanavičius got a good chance for a goal in the 5th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Fabio Fillol made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Pedro Augusto Arce in the 7th minute of play. In the 8th minute Coritiba City were awarded a corner. Nestor Prado went to the cornerflag to take it. 冯雄翀 came out of the goal in the 9th minute to try and stop a shot by Paraná Clube's Sebastien De Hont. But to his dismay, Sebastien De Hont quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. 12 minutes into the game, Pedro Augusto Arce cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-1. Fabio Fillol was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in.

Nestor Prado was slow to take the kick. During this time Coritiba City's players had a chance to rest. José Pedro Munhoz made a great header on Coritiba City's corner, it was just that Paraná Clube's Fabio Fillol managed to reach the ball for a save. Hong Wang was astounded when the referee showed him the red card after a seemingly innocent challenge, 25 minutes into the match. In a very dangerous position, a player in Paraná Clube fell when an opponent tried to get the ball from him in the 24th minute. Penalty! The Coritiba City fans' excitement grew in the 28th match minute when Coritiba City's Geraldo Bezerra looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 2-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. Geraldo Bezerra fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 33rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Fabio Fillol having to interfere. After 34 played minutes Paraná Clube got a freekick which was hit by Sebastien De Hont. When Elder Ortiz came up free with the goalie in the 35th minute, the Paraná Clube fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Elder Ortiz couldn't finish the play. Geraldo Bezerra fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 42nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Fabio Fillol having to interfere. Arlindo Xavier struck a weak shot in the 44th minute. 冯雄翀 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Paraná Clube. Felipe Dietze charged in rather forcefully in the 45th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Felipe Dietze the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Chicão Faria charged in rather forcefully in the 47th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Chicão Faria the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Chicão Faria kicked well hit freekick during the 47th minute of the match. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

In the 51st minute, Geraldo Bezerra ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Fabio Fillol was frozen by the shot and now it was 3-1. A collision led to Paraná Clube getting a freekick after 57 minutes play. Elder Ortiz hit a great ball. The audience thought a goal was coming when Elder Ortiz got free with 冯雄翀 in the 60th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. When Arlindo Xavier came up free with the goalie in the 62nd minute, the Paraná Clube fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Arlindo Xavier couldn't finish the play. Paraná Clube's Arlindo Xavier got a good chance for a goal in the 66th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. The supporters of Paraná Clube booed when Coritiba City was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 70 match minutes in a wonderful position. Chicão Faria didn't get a good kick on the ball. Arlindo Xavier received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 72nd minute. 冯雄翀 tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Elder Ortiz could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 74th minute of the match, but 冯雄翀 made a huge save. Paraná Clube made a substitution. Vladimir de Souza replaced Arlindo Xavier. After some fancy dribbling in the 81st minute, Geraldo Bezerra managed to get in a good position for a shot. Coritiba City's supporters rose to their feet, but Geraldo Bezerra was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Fabio Fillol breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After 86 minutes of play, Paraná Clube's Vladimir de Souza made it 3-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. 冯雄翀 was left in no man's land by his defense there! After 92 minutes, Nestor Prado mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Coritiba City and the Paraná Clube players grew even worse after the yellow card. After a rather tough play, Coritiba City's Nestor Prado got a free kick in the 92nd minute. If Pedro Augusto Arce had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 96th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead.
