Londrina made the most of the third round of the Campeonato Paranaense, beating Azuriz 2-0 in Pato Branco and consolidating its place atop Group A. The Tubarão took control early and converted chances when it mattered, leaving Azuriz chasing the game without a response.

Both goals came in the first half. Bruno Santos opened the scoring after a scramble in the penalty area following a free kick, and Iago Teles doubled the advantage soon after. Londrina’s efficiency in the opening 45 minutes proved decisive; the hosts could not overcome the deficit and the match closed without further scoring.

The victory moved Londrina to seven points in Grupo A, a key return in the early phase of the state championship where every round shapes qualification and momentum. For fans who follow the tournament closely, the result reinforces Londrina’s reputation for getting results in tight matches and executing set-piece routines under pressure.

Azuris supporters will be left with practical questions about defensive organization on dead-ball situations. The conceded goal from the free kick sequence exposed vulnerabilities in the box that rivals will note when preparing for future fixtures. Londrina’s ability to strike early also shifts the tactical dynamic for opponents: teams now must balance offensive urgency with caution to avoid giving the Tubarão space to counter.
