From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match22 Aug 2026

Athletico Paranaense run riot against Goiás

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

A brace, and Juan Camilo Portilla takes the afternoon — 8.30

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Juan Camilo Portilla provided it, and the 8.30 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Market24 Aug 2026

Not going: Isaac stays at Athletico Paranaense

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Gandzasar had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

Match22 Aug 2026

Still nobody has beaten Athletico Paranaense

The unbeaten run reaches 7. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Athletico Paranaense

Juan Camilo Portilla and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Gastón Benavídez falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Ninety minutes of Lucas Esquivel at his very best

Marked 8.19. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Athletico Paranaense.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Dudu Marques runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 16. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

Somebody else is better right now than Stiven Mendoza

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

Market3 Aug 2026

Athletico Paranaense turn down Hapoel Beer Sheva for Mycael

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Lucas Esquivel signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Lucas Esquivel commits to Athletico Paranaense for another 4 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Athletico Paranaense

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Stiven Mendoza was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Léo in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Athletico Paranaense this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match1 Aug 2026

Athletico Paranaense refuse to lose to Chapecoense

A point taken on 90 minutes is worth exactly one point and considerably more than that to a dressing room. This side does not stop, which is a reputation worth more than the result.

Market3 Aug 2026

Athletico Paranaense may not be able to give Matheus Felipe what he wants

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Matheus Felipe wants continental football; whether Athletico Paranaense can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Athletico Paranaense are still strangers to each other

6 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

Match1 Aug 2026

Athletico Paranaense and Chapecoense take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

The dugout3 Aug 2026

Kevin Viveros knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Kevin Viveros trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
