Match in Five Sentences: Corinthians lost 2-1 to Chapecoense. Matheus Bidu put Timão ahead in the second minute. Marcinho levelled (40.) via Heitor, then, after VAR overturned a Breno Bidon effort on the stroke of half time, he clinched it (77.) from Yannick Bolasie's pass. Chape produced five shots on target from seven attempts, a 71.4% accuracy that punished Coringão despite their 62.1% possession and 16 attempts. Timão drop from 10th to 11th and visit Estudiantes in the CONMEBOL Libertadores next, while Verdão do Oeste remain 20th and host Internacional in the league.

Player of the Match: Marcinho scored twice from three shots on target and added seven recoveries, deciding the game with ruthless finishing and energetic out-of-possession work.

Stat of the Match: Anderson made five saves, a steadying display that kept Chape in control under long spells of pressure.

Three Things We Learned: Bidu's early strike capped an all-action display, with 25 successful final third passes and 11 recoveries showing his influence. Timão delivered 39 crosses at 25.6% accuracy, but the supply did not translate into enough clear chances. Verdão do Oeste's defence made 28 clearances and limited the hosts to six shots on target, the platform for a first away league win of the season.
