Corinthians bank $1.7m after reaching Libertadores quarter-finals | OneFootball

Corinthians have reached the Copa Libertadores quarter-finals with a 1-0 win over Rosario Central at Neo Química Arena. According to Meu Timao, the qualification is worth $1.7 million, about R$ 9 million at current rates.

They advanced despite a second-half dismissal for Raniele, with Breno Bidon scoring the decisive goal. Estudiantes of Argentina await in the next round, with ties scheduled for the weeks of 9 and 16 September.

Conmebol’s prize for each quarter-finalist takes the club’s tournament earnings to roughly R$ 25.9 million.

That total reflects $1 million for the group stage, $1.02 million for three group wins and $1.25 million for reaching the last 16, alongside the latest award.

The sums rise further. A semi-final berth would add $2.3 million, while the final pays $7 million to the runners-up and $25 million to the champions.

If they lift a second Libertadores under Fernando Diniz, the squad could collect a little over $32 million, about R$ 165.1 million, in prize money. Domestically, Corinthians visit Coritiba at 19:30 on Sunday at Couto Pereira in the 24th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.
