Palmeiras 2-2 Athletico Paranaense: summary, result and goals

The first half ends with victory in the match for Palmeiras 1-0 once morest Athletico Paranaense but equality in the tie, which at this time would go to penalties.

The first 45′ that were played at a great pace and that changed everything with Scarpa’s early goal three minutes into the game. A rhythm that Abel Ferreira’s team imposed and that was continuous throughout the first half. With much superiority, Verdao imposed his law at home and had countless occasions (not all clear) on Bento’s goal, who was sure to face every rival attempt.

Without letting go of the accelerator, Athletico Paranaense had moments of respite but they were not enough to come out on top. Vitinha and Vitor Roque had a very strong defense on their marks by the Palmeiras defenders, and meanwhile Dudu, Scarpa and Rony roamed freely through the rival field to generate dangerous situations.

At the end of the first part, Murilo with a reckless tackle made his team stay with 10. If the scenario was new with the local goal, Verdao having to play the rest of the game with one less is also new. Qualifying open once more.
