The win also increased the gap in goals scored between the teams. Before this Sunday’s match, Corinthians had scored 57 times against Santos’ 35. After the 4-1 result at Canindé, the Brabas reached 61 goals, while the Sereias da Vila moved to 36, totaling 97 goals in 33 meetings.

In addition to improving the overall numbers in the matchup, Corinthians ended a run of two consecutive derbies without a win. The previous two matches had ended in draws: 1-1 in the 2024 Campeonato Paulista and 2-2 in the 2026 state championship.

Between those two draws, however, Corinthians had also won both meetings played in 2025, by 3-0 and 1-0. Considering the most recent stretch, the Brabas are still unbeaten against Santos since the 2021 Brazilian Women’s Championship.

Unbeaten run grows in the derby

Corinthians’ last defeat to Santos came in 2021, when the Sereias won 2-1 in the Brazilian Women’s Championship. Since then, Corinthians have put together a long unbeaten streak in the matchup.

With this Sunday’s victory, the Brabas’ unbeaten run against their rival reached 13 matches. During this period, Corinthians earned wins in the Campeonato Paulista and the Brazilian Championship, in addition to recording draws in the derby.

The streak began with a 2-1 win in the 2021 Paulistão. In 2022, more victories followed: 2-1 in the Brazilian Championship and 1-0 in the state championship. The dominance continued in 2023, a season in which Timão won four meetings: 1-0, 1-0, 3-0, and 2-0.

In 2024, Corinthians beat Santos 3-1 in the Brazilian Championship and drew 1-1 in the Paulista. The following year, there were two Corinthians wins, by 3-0 and 1-0. Then in May 2026, the teams drew 2-2 before another black-and-white victory this Sunday.

Record in the Brasileirão

The win at Canindé also improved Corinthians’ numbers against Santos specifically in the Brazilian Women’s Championship.

Before this round, the clubs had faced each other ten times in the national competition, with six Corinthians wins and four Santos wins. Now, the history of the matchup in the Brasileirão stands at 11 matches, with seven Brabas wins and four wins for the Sereias da Vila.

The number of goals in this segment also increased. Corinthians had scored 14 goals against Santos’ nine and, after this Sunday’s scoreline, moved up to 18 goals, while the opponent reached ten.

Overall history remains heavily favorable

The first Corinthians vs. Santos women’s match since Corinthians resumed the team took place on August 13, 2016, in the Campeonato Paulista. On that occasion, the teams drew 1-1 at Estádio José Liberatti.

Since then, the derby has become a regular part of both teams’ calendars. The Campeonato Paulista accounts for the highest number of meetings between the clubs, while the Brasileirão and the Copa do Brasil complete the history.

Corinthians’ biggest win remains the 5-2 result achieved on November 19, 2020, at Vila Belmiro, in the quarterfinals of the Women’s Campeonato Paulista.

On the list of Corinthians’ top scorers in the matchup, Adriana, Gabi Nunes, and Vic Albuquerque appear with five goals each. Among them, Vic remains in the current squad. Right behind them is Tamires, with three goals, also part of the current Brabas squad.
