After thrashing, Corinthians U17 match season's best winning run | OneFootball

Corinthians took the field on Wednesday afternoon (30) to face Atlético-GO at Estádio Alfredo Schürig, Fazendinha, in Parque São Jorge, for the 19th and final round of the 2026 Brazilian U-17 Championship qualifying stage, and won with an emphatic 8-0 scoreline. The goals for the Sons of Terrão were scored by Léo Rodrigues (twice), Miguel Moscardo (twice), Gabriel Cordeiro (twice), Igor Macedo, and Kayke Dallaqua.

With the result, the Corinthians side finished the first stage of the tournament in second place with 39 points, from 12 wins, three draws, and four defeats — 58 goals scored and only 20 conceded; the best attack and the third-best defense. The three points also saw Alvinegro match its longest winning streak of the season (five). In their last five matches, they beat: Atlético-MG (H – 2-1), Santa Fé (A – 0-3), Juventude (A – 1-6), Desportivo Brasil (H – 2-0), and Atlético-GO (H – 8-0). All of those matches took place in September and were part of the Paulista Championship and the Brazilian Championship in the category.

In July, the Parque São Jorge club had the same positive run. On that occasion, Alvinegro picked up three points against Juventus (H – 4-2), Palmeiras (H – 3-1), Vasco da Gama (A – 0-3), Barcelona Esportivo Capela (A – 0-2), and Internacional (H – 4-0). The unbeaten run was ended by a 6-3 defeat to Ibrachina at Parque São Jorge in the first phase of the Paulista Championship in the category.

The second-longest winning streak came between the end of August and the beginning of this month, when the Sons of Terrão put together the same run, beating São José (H – 3-2), América-MG (A – 0-2), Santa Fé (H – 5-0), and Athletico-PR (A – 1-4). That positive stretch ended with a 3-2 defeat to RB Bragantino at Fazendinha in the Brazilian U-17 Championship. This stretch also coincides with the team’s longest unbeaten run of the year (six matches). Before those four straight wins, Timão had drawn against Desportivo Brasil (A – 1-1) and Fluminense (H – 1-1).

The team’s results this season have solidified Guilherme Nascimento’s work in charge of the side. He was hired by Timão at the end of 2025 after an impressive spell leading Athletico-PR U-17. Since his arrival at Parque São Jorge, the Sons of Terrão have recorded 25 wins, five draws, and seven defeats — 119 goals scored and 40 conceded. Their success rate stands at 72%.

Now, after comfortably thrashing Atlético-GO at home to close out the first phase of the Brazilian U-17 Championship, Corinthians turn their attention back to the Paulista Championship in the category. Next Saturday (3), at 11 a.m. (Brasília time), Timãozinho will visit Ponte Preta at Estádio Municipal Coronel Francisco Vieira, in Itapira, in the interior of São Paulo, for the first leg of the state championship round of 16. The return leg will take place a week later, at the same time, at Estádio Alfredo Schürig, Fazendinha.
