International wins with a goal from Guerrero

Internacional beat Coritiba 1-0 with a goal from Peruvian striker Paulo Guerrero in a match for the first day of the Brazilian Championship, which began this Saturday without an audience and with demanding health protocols after three months of delay due to the coronavirus pandemic.

With tonight's triumph, the “colorado” is located in third place in the table, while Sport, after beating Ceará 3-2, breathes Athletico Paranaense on the back of his neck, who after defeating 2- 0 to Fortaleza at home, is temporarily in the lead due to goal difference.

After a first half of accommodation in the host court of the Couto Pereira stadium in the city of Curitiba, in southern Brazil, those led by Argentine Eduardo Germán Coudet brought out their game in the second half with a more offensive strategy.

The stars of the game were midfielder Thiago Gallardo and Peruvian Guerrero, the pair that put together the play that opened the winning score in the 71st minute.

While in the south of the country Internacional beat Coritiba, in the north, at the Castelao stadium, Athlético Paranaense defeated Fortaleza in their homonymous city as a visitor.

With goals from forward Vitinho (21 ') and midfielder Leo Cittadini (47'), Athlético surprised visitors with a safe game, despite having entered the court with several casualties, including goalkeeper Santos and defender Thiago Heleno .

Paranaense was already winning 2-0 when Colombian defender Juan Sebastián Quintero, who had been acting in the Fortaleza offensive, was sent off in the 77th minute after an attack on Nikao.

In the third game this Saturday, Sport beat Ceará 3-2 in a close match in which the visitors did not give up until the final minute.

The scoring was opened by striker Rafael Sobis from Ceará at six minutes but was equaled by attacker Elton, from Sport, at 19, and who added a new score minutes later for a penalty scored in favor of the Recife club.

Sport did not finish celebrating when Ceará scored with a score from striker Cleber in the 35th minute and five minutes later the rematch returned with a goal from Argentine midfielder Jonatan Gomez, signed in February by the club.

The last goal of the match was scored by forward Víctor Jacaré of Ceará in the 56th minute.
