Decisive figure powers Coritiba's commanding display at Santos | OneFootball

Breno Lopes struck in the fifth minute with a finish to set Coritiba on their way to a 3-0 win at Santos. He added another and won a penalty to cap a dominant first half.

Early on, the midfielder burst through on a counter-attack and slotted into the bottom left (5.), punishing Peixe's loose shape.

He doubled the lead with a right-footed finish from the centre (20.), exploiting space as Alvinegro Praiano's back line retreated.

Lopes then drew a penalty with sharp movement across the box (36.). Coxa converted from the spot (39.), leaving the hosts chasing shadows.

He finished with two goals from two attempts, two key passes and three touches in the box, a clinical display that set the tone for Coxa-Branca.

Coxa rise from 10th to 6th in the table. Peixe slip from 15th to 16th. Coxa host Bahia next in the league. Peixe host San Lorenzo in the Sudamericana next.
