Corinthians beaten by Chapecoense in Brasileirão, ethics case closed and protests in Itaquera | OneFootball

Corinthians lost 2-1 at home to Chapecoense in the Brasileirão on Sunday. According to Meu Timao, an ethics case involving a senior club official was also closed.

The defeat came at Neo Química Arena in the 26th round. Matheus Bidu scored for the hosts, while Marcinho hit both goals for the visitors.

The disciplinary process against Haroldo Dantas, president of the Fiscal Council, was officially archived by the Ethics Commission of the Deliberative Council. The decision ends an inquiry into an alleged conflict of interests linked to his proximity to president Osmar Stabile.

The reverse in Itaquera intensified discontent. Supporters chanted protests after the final whistle, criticising the poor league run.

When the players approached to acknowledge the crowd, they were met with demands. Fans issued a firm reminder for next Wednesday, when Corinthians face Estudiantes of Argentina in the Libertadores quarter-finals.
