Corinthians confirm line-up to face Cruzeiro in Brasileiro Feminino quarter-final | OneFootball

According to Meu Timao, Corinthians have confirmed their line-up to face Cruzeiro at Estádio do Canindé from 17:00 in the second leg of the Brasileiro Feminino quarter-finals.

Emily Lima keeps faith with the core from the first leg. The starting XI is: Nicole, Gi Fernandes, Thaís Regina, Érika, Thaís Ferreira, Tamires, Duda Sampaio, Gabi Zanotti, Vic Albuquerque, Belén Aquino and Jhonson.

Up to five changes are permitted, and the bench features Lelê, Rillary, Duda Mineira, Ivana Fuso, Paola Garcia, Andressa Alves, Ariel Godoi, Gisela Robledo and Juliete.

Cruzeiro, coached by Jonas Urias, respond with Claudia, Giménez, Capelinha, Calhau, Bedoya, Pri Back, Letícia Alves, Gisseli, Vanessinha, Marília Furiel and Byanca Brasil.

Forward Jaqueline is out at the last minute with a right-knee chondropathy. Midfielder Ana Vitória also remains sidelined with an abdominal muscle injury. Conversely, Juliete and Dayana Rodríguez trained in the week and are available.

Corinthians won the first leg 1-0 on Monday at Arena Independência, Vic Albuquerque scoring. A draw is enough to reach the semi-finals and meet Bahia. Cruzeiro need a win by one to force penalties, by two or more to go through.

The tie is at Canindé because Parque São Jorge falls short of the 10,000 capacity required and Neo Química Arena is unavailable after the men faced Chapecoense, the newly relaid pitch needing more recovery time.
