The Atle-Tiba, also known as Atletiba or Athletiba, is one of the biggest and most traditional derbies in Brazilian football. It is the rivalry between the two biggest football clubs of Paraná: Coritiba and Athletico Paranaense. These clubs were founded in 1909 and 1924, respectively, and have been each other's biggest rival for many decades. On many occasions the Campeonato Paranaense, the state championship of Paraná, was decided by this derby.

History

[edit]

Background

[edit]

The Brazilian city of Curitiba, capital of the state Paraná in the south of Brazil, has always been divided in two halves when it comes to football. The traditional families that had lived in Curitiba for generations rooted for América and Internacional, whereas the new immigrants (mainly the Germans) were represented by Coritiba. It stayed like that, until the traditional families were united when América and Internacional merged to become "Atlético Paranaense" in 1924.

Matches

[edit]

The first official game between Coxa and Furacão took place on June 8, 1924. On the field of Coritiba, Parque Graciosa, the new immigrants won 6–3. It took until December 25, 1927, for Athletico to win its first Atletiba, when Coritiba was beaten 2–1 at Água Verde. After that, it was Coritiba's turn to wait 3 years for a victory in the derby. In 1930 Coritiba broke the spell and won 7–3.

The largest victory of Athletico against Coritiba was a 6–2 win on April 6, 1938, at the Estádio Joaquim Américo. Coritiba's largest win is not the aforementioned 7–3, but a 6–0 victory on November 14, 1959. The highest scoring games are a 7–4 victory for Coritiba and a 6–5 Athletico victory.

In the Campeonato Paranaense, the state competition, Coritiba holds the record with 39 titles, followed by Athletico, with 27 titles. They have played against each other in the final of the tournament nineteen times, with Athletico having a slight advantage, winning 10 times, while Coritiba won 9.[1]
