Substitute Jael Vieira struck with a minute to go to send Flamengo back to the top of the Campeonato standings with a 1-0 win over Coritiba.

The win moves Flamengo two points clear of Corinthians, though they have played two games more.

A first-half brace from Elias De Olivera helped Figueirense to a 2-1 away win over Atletico Mineiro.

De Olivera scored in the eight and 45th minutes to put the visitors in control.

Dudu Cearense got one back for the hosts two minutes into the second half but they could not find an equaliser.

Palmeiras and Gremio shared the spoils from a goalless draw.
