With a mixed squad, Corinthians was defeated 2-1 by Fortaleza this Wednesday at Arena Castelão, in the 37th round of the Brazilian Championship. Cacá and Gui Negão were the villains.
The defender played out of position as a right-back, but did not perform well. He failed in marking on Fortaleza’s first goal, leaving Pochettino unmarked. Meanwhile, the young forward, despite showing effort, wasted at least two goal-scoring chances in the first half.
On the other hand, two other academy youngsters had good performances. Midfielder André scored the team’s only goal and forward Dieguinho was one of the most active in attack. Vitinho also had a good game.
The defeat to Fortaleza took away Corinthians’ chance to reach eighth place in the table. The black-and-white team, therefore, depends on winning the Copa do Brasil to qualify for the Libertadores in 2026. Timão is currently tenth in the Brasileirão, with 46 points.
