Corinthians match U20s' best winning run this season after Paulista win | OneFootball

Corinthians once again matched their best run of positive results this season in the Paulista Under-20 Championship. The 1-0 win over União Suzano last Saturday (1), in the ninth round of the state competition, marked Timãozinho’s third straight victory, matching a feat that had been recorded only once before in 2026.

The current streak began right after the team’s elimination from the Brazilian Under-20 Championship. Upon returning to the Paulista, William Batista’s squad beat Ponte Preta 7-1, then overcame Itapirense 4-0 and finally defeated União Suzano 1-0, confirming their strong form in the state competition.

This is only the second time this season that Corinthians have put together three consecutive wins. The first streak came in June and was even longer, with five straight victories across matches in the Paulista Under-20 Championship and the Brazilian Under-20 Championship.

On that occasion, Timão began the run by beating Mirassol 1-0 in the state championship. They then thrashed Avaí 6-2 in the national competition and returned to winning ways in the Paulista by defeating Portuguesa Santista 2-0. The streak was extended with wins over Vitória, 2-1 at Fazendinha, and Cruzeiro, also 2-1 in Belo Horizonte, both in the Brazilian championship of the category.

With the result against União Suzano, Corinthians remain top of Group 1 in the Paulista Under-20 Championship and stay firmly in the race for the best overall record in the opening phase.

Timãozinho’s next match will be on Saturday (8) at 3 p.m., when they host Ferroviária at Fazendinha in the tenth round of the Paulista Under-20 Championship.
