Coritiba PR 2:1 Chapecoense SC — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Josué produced a captain's display as Coritiba edged out Chapecoense 2-1 in the Brasileiro Série A, a result that keeps their campaign ticking over without any immediate fixture on the horizon. The home side were rarely tested yet still found the net twice, while the visitors' late consolation flattered a performance that offered little else.

The match turned decisively just past the half-hour mark when Tiago finished smartly from Josué's assist, with a VAR check at half-time confirming the goal stood. Coritiba then sealed matters on 82 minutes as Pedro Rocha converted Joaquín Lavega's delivery, leaving Tulio Eduardo Silva de Oliveira's injury-time strike for Chapecoense, set up by Kevin Ramírez, as nothing more than a footnote.

On the numbers, Coritiba edged possession at 52% and registered both of their shots, while Chapecoense managed none and created an xG of 0.00 to the hosts' 0.05 — a controlled, if unspectacular, performance. Josué was the standout with a 9.7 rating from midfield, dictating the game without scoring. CheckLive's model rated Coritiba marginally ahead, and the result confirmed that call.
