Vitória started the match with Francisco; Léo Bom, Lucas Bernardi, Thomaz Haislan and Breno Falchi; Esmael, Dudu Sousa and Max; Guilherme Alves, Matheus Gonzaga and Arthur Bolis.

From the opening minutes, Corinthians took control of the game and looked the more dangerous side. After having a goal ruled out for offside, the black-and-white team managed to open the scoring before halftime. Lucca Caramico received an assist from Léo Amistá and finished to give Corinthians the lead in the first half.

After the break, Timãozinho did not take long to extend the lead. Matheus Rocha scored the second goal, and shortly after, Ronaldo Henrique took advantage of a loose ball following a save by the goalkeeper to make it 3-0. Lucca Caramico appeared again in the match and, after a corner kick, scored once more to complete the scoring for Corinthians.

Athletico Paranaense still managed to pull one back after a mistake by Corinthians' defensive system. Shortly afterward, however, the Paraná side had a player sent off, leaving them with one fewer player on the field.

With the three points, Corinthians reached 29 and moved ahead of Athletico Paranaense in the standings, climbing to third place in the Brazilian Under-17 Championship. Timãozinho’s next match will be this Saturday against Red Bull Bragantino at 3 p.m., in the 15th round of the national competition. The match is scheduled to be played at Estádio Alfredo Schürig, Fazendinha.
