Corinthians make it three straight Libertadores matches without a booking | OneFootball

Corinthians have gone three consecutive Copa Libertadores matches without receiving a single card.

Meu Timao notes the streak underscores the side's discipline this campaign.

The card-free run covered draws with Peñarol and Independiente Santa Fe, and a win over Peñarol.

Across five matches in this edition, Corinthians have collected only two yellows, both in the first two rounds.

The opening booking came in the debut, a win away to Platense in Argentina. In the first half, André Luiz was shown a yellow by Chilean referee Juan Lara for a foul on Pablo Ferreira in midfield.

In round two, a home win over Santa Fe in São Paulo, Gabriel Paulista was cautioned in the second half. He slid into Rodallega in midfield and was booked by Paraguayan referee Juan Benítez.

Corinthians remain unbeaten, have already secured qualification and top spot in Group E. The final round is next week at home to Platense.

The round of 16 draw takes place on Friday next week, the 29th. As group winners, Corinthians will face a team that finished second.
