Operário-PR come from behind to beat Paysandu away in Série B | OneFootball

In the 23rd round of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B, Operário-PR defeated Paysandu 2-1 this Sunday at Estádio Banpará Curuzu in Belém. Paraíba and Boschilia scored the goals for the team from Paraná, while Diogo Oliveira netted the only goal for Papão.

The Match

Maurício Garcez and Diogo Oliveira dashed towards Operário's goal at 27 minutes into the first half. Garcez advanced down the left side of the field and crossed to Diogo Oliveira, who opened the scoring for Paysandu.

At 40 minutes, the Phantom responded and tied the match: Paraíba took advantage of a free-kick by Gabriel Boschilia and headed the ball into the back of the net.

In the second half, at five minutes, Operário turned the game around with a penalty kick by Gabriel Boschilia, after Gabriel Mesquita fouled Kleiton while coming out for the ball.

Paysandu nearly equalized at 23 minutes when midfielder Anderson Leite headed the ball wide after a cross from Marlon.

At 27, Miranda was initially sent off after a foul on Diogo Oliveira, but after a VAR review, the card was rescinded because, in the previous play, Reversón had committed a foul on Boschilia that the referees had not called.

With the result, Paysandu remains in the second-to-last position in Série B, with 21 points. Meanwhile, Operário-PR moves closer to the top 10, with 23 points. The Phantom from Vila had not won away from home in 15 games, with their last victory against Cuiabá at the beginning of May at Arena Pantanal.
