Corinthians traveled to Barradão Stadium on Saturday night (18) to face Vitória in a match valid for the 12th round of the 2026 Brazilian Championship and drew 0-0. With the result, Timão dropped one place in the table and entered the relegation zone, sitting 17th. In an interview with Premiere, moments after the final whistle, full-back Matheus Bidu assessed the match and valued the point earned.
“We knew it would be very difficult. We managed to control things a little. The opposing team is very strong at home. We’ve had a tough run, and there’s a bit of fatigue. We managed to hold the result; it wasn’t what we wanted, but we got a point here,” he began.

“The team has been improving, we’re working. Fourth game without conceding a goal. Today was a very scrappy game, and we couldn’t get any shots away. It was a solid defensive performance. We couldn’t finish, but we also didn’t concede. This point is important for us for the rest of the championship,” Bidu added.
After facing Vitória away from home in the Brasileirão, Corinthians will now turn their focus to their debut in the 2026 Copa do Brasil. That’s because next Tuesday (21), the Tiradentes holiday, Alvinegro will face Barra, from Santa Catarina, at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), in the first leg of the fifth round of the national knockout tournament, at Ressacada Stadium
