Londrina’s Kaue Leonardo de Souza Prado was booked in the 29', followed by Caio in the 33'. Vila Nova made that pressure count just before the interval: at 45+3', Everton Galdino finished a move assisted by Marquinhos Gabriel to put the hosts ahead 1-0.
The goal gave Vila Nova the advantage at half-time, and they needed little time after the break to strengthen it.
At 50', Jonathan Costa scored Vila Nova’s second, with Joao Vieira providing the assist. Londrina responded with a cluster of changes: Lucas Marques and Nino Paraiba came on at 54', Guilherme Cachoeira Silveira at 56', and Juninho at 61'. Vila Nova also introduced Nathan Camargo for Hayner in the 61'.
Londrina made another change at 67', with Joao Tavares replacing Nino Paraiba, before Joao Vitor De souza Martins was booked in the 68'. Vila Nova brought on Lincoln Correa Dos Santos and Bruno Xavier in the 72', then made further substitutions late on as the lead held.
The hosts finished with 23 shots and 10 on target, compared with Londrina’s 10 shots and three on target. That attacking edge, capped by goals at key moments, proved decisive as Vila Nova closed out the 2-0 win.
