Who out there missed the most INSANE game of the 2026 Brasileirão?
The 27th round of the competition kicked off with Coritiba versus Athletico this Friday (11).
And it was a CHAOTIC clash at Couto Pereira, the stage for the 401st Athletiba in history.

There were cards, scuffles, puddles, and even a red card based on the “Vini Jr. Law.”
Furacão had one more man on the pitch and was leading 3-1 until the 90th minute at the home of its biggest rival.
Then veteran center-back Rodrigo Moledo, 38, turned into a striker TWICE after starting on the bench.
Securing an unlikely 3-3 draw after two assists from Josué.

Non-stop drama! 😱
The pitch conditions were far from ideal because of heavy rain.
Which contributed to a match full of long balls, tough challenges, and deliveries into the opposition box.

Athletico built a solid lead thanks to Luiz Gustavo (18′) and Arthur Dias (30′).
Breno Lopes left Coritiba a man down after being sent off under the “Vini Jr. Law.”
And Coxa pulled one back right after that, with Tiago Cóser pouncing on the rebound from Josué’s free kick (47′).
The second half came, along with Furacão’s goal from Viveros, the outright top scorer in the Brasileirão (63′).
Coritiba did not give up. And the Josué-Rodrigo Moledo duo decided it.
Two set pieces and two goals from the veteran center-back in the 91st minute and then again in the 97th.
An unlikely draw in an insane derby.
