Match in Five Sentences: Remo lost 3-2 to Coritiba in Belém after a stoppage time sucker punch. José Welison put through his own net in the 47th minute to hand Coxa the lead. Zé Ricardo levelled (61.), Pedro Morisco saved Yago Pikachu's penalty before the winger struck from the ensuing set piece (64.), then Fabinho equalised from the bench (76.). Leão Azul posted 32 attempts and 61.0% possession yet found only seven on target as pressure lacked precision.
