RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov. 13 (Xinhua) -- Midfielder Edenilson scored twice as Internacional moved closer to securing a place in next year's Copa Libertadores with a 2-1 home win over Athletico Paranaense in Brazil's Serie A championship on Saturday.
David Terrans gave Paranaense the lead in the 37th minute when he finished coolly into the bottom-right corner following a counterattack.
Edenilson equalized three minutes later with a low strike after combining with Carlos Palacios. The Brazil international struck again just after the hour mark by capitalizing on smart work by Mauricio Prado to power a shot past Aderbar Santos.
The result at the Beira-Rio stadium leaves Internacional sixth in the 20-team standings with 47 points from 32 matches. Paranaense are 10th, six points further back.
Brazil's Serie A has six direct Copa Libertadores berths, in addition to vacancies for the winners of the Copa do Brasil, Copa Libertadores and Copa Sudamericana.
In other fixtures on Saturday, Atletico Goianiense were held to a goalless home draw by Santos, America Mineiro won 3-1 at home to Gremio and hosts Bragantino routed Fortaleza 3-0. Enditem
