RIO DE JANEIRO, May 21 (Xinhua) -- Anderson Talisca scored from a free-kick in second-half injury time to earn Bahia a 1-1 draw with Flamengo in Brazil's Serie A championship on Wednesday.

The 20-year-old midfielder struck with a low shot from a set piece that beat goalkeeper Felipe into the bottom right corner.

Forward Paulinho had given the hosts an early lead at the Maracana stadium by heading in Everton's cross.

The defeat left the five-time Brazilian league winners with just five points from their first six matches of the campaign. Bahia are ninth with eight points.

Also on Wednesday, former Brazil international midfielder Alex scored late to earn Coritiba a 1-1 draw at home to Internacional.
