Corinthians duo eye full Neo Química Arena and stress fans’ importance | OneFootball

Corinthians are set for another Brasileiro Feminino final, opening against São Paulo at Neo Química Arena on Saturday, with Andressa Alves and Tamires underlining the force of the Fiel.

According to Meu Timao, Gaviões da Fiel called on supporters on Thursday morning to back the Brabas. Andressa said playing alongside their fans gives the team extra drive and insisted effort, unity and commitment to the shirt will not be lacking.

Tamires expects a full house and described the clássico as a tight, mirrored contest, noting São Paulo’s quality and the need for total concentration. She felt experience from past finals could help manage moments in the game, guiding control and communication without predetermining the result.

She highlighted that almost 10,000 supporters were at Casa do Povo on Monday to see the 1-0 semi-final second leg win over Bahia, and she hopes to set another attendance mark in the final. Tamires added she believed the 2024 record was around 44,500, suggesting the same opponents offer a chance to surpass it.

Addressing recent criticism, she said football cannot be judged by a single weekend and that the squad must keep working while respecting supporters’ emotions. Defeats will occur, she added, and as long as there is no disrespect, that is part of the process.

After Saturday’s first leg, Corinthians visit São Paulo next Saturday at Morumbis. Both matches kick off at 16:30.
