Memphis joins select Corinthians list of scorers against major rivals in 21st century | OneFootball

Memphis joined a select Corinthians group by scoring in the 1-1 Brasileirão draw at Santos on Sunday, a result that kept them in the top half on eight points.

He netted on 18 minutes at Vila Belmiro, cutting in from the left and drilling into Gabriel Brazão's corner after a break sparked by André and fed by Kaio César. Meu Timao notes he is the 21st this century to score against Palmeiras, São Paulo and Santos.

His first strike in the trilogy came against Palmeiras on 30 July last year in a Copa do Brasil tie won 1-0. He then scored in the 3-1 Brasileirão victory over São Paulo on 20 November, before Sunday's effort versus Santos.

He joins names such as Romero, Jadson, Jô, Ronaldo, Liedson, Guerrero, Paulinho, Emerson Sheik and Danilo. Marcelinho also found the net against all three, but most of his goals fell before 2000.

The goal ended his season-long drought. Corinthians visit Chapecoense at Arena Condá on Thursday at 21:30, also in the Brasileirão.
