Corinthians launch Matheuzinho cup for Libertadores quarter-final decider at Neo Química Arena | OneFootball

Corinthians will sell a special-edition cup at Neo Química Arena for Wednesday's Libertadores quarter-final second leg against Estudiantes at 21:30. According to Meu Timao, the design features right-back Matheuzinho.

The cup is predominantly black, grey and gold. Its front carries the club's classic crest used on the 2026 kits in gold, the phrase "Loco por ti" and the match identifier. Dark grey graphics echo terrace chants across the background, and it will cost R$ 25 at stadium service points.

The reverse shows a photo of Matheuzinho, one of the team's standouts this year, alongside high-contrast fan celebrations, smoke effects and textures evoking Itaquera.

The stadium will be full, with all tickets released for sale taken on Tuesday. The first leg at Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi in La Plata finished 1-1, Kaio César scoring for Corinthians.

With the draw in Argentina, a straightforward win in São Paulo would send Corinthians through, while another draw would push the tie to a penalty shootout.

This is Corinthians' sixth Libertadores quarter-final, following runs in 1996, 1999, 2000, 2012 and 2022. They progressed twice and went out three times, with the high point an unbeaten title 14 years ago.
