📹 Corinthians fall to Coritiba, lose 2nd straight in the Brasileirão | OneFootball

At Couto Pereira, Coritiba beat Corinthians 2-1 this Sunday (23), in the 24th round of the 2026 Brasileirão.

After the heroic qualification for the quarterfinals of the 2026 Libertadores, coach Fernando Diniz rested some important players for Timão, such as goalkeeper Hugo Souza, full-backs Matheuzinho and Matheus Bidu, as well as midfielder Rodrigo Garro.

Coxa, in turn, made the most of their home strength and gave 100% on the pitch, leaving no space for their rivals from São Paulo.

And the win started to take shape in the first half, when former Santos player JP Chermont found Pedro Rocha in the box, and he sent the defender to the ground before finishing firmly.

After halftime, Memphis Depay came on, replacing the "ineffective" Pedro Raul, but Corinthians kept succumbing to Coritiba's intensity.

Then, late on, after a cross from the right by JP Chermont, youngster Paulo Roberto headed home in style to extend the green-and-white side's lead.

In stoppage time, through sheer pressure, Raniele got on the end of a cross from the left and headed with great class to pull one back for Timão.
