Corinthians’ women’s team continues its preparation for its next match of the 2026 season. Next Saturday (22), at 6 p.m. (Brasília time), at Estádio Alfredo Schürig, Fazendinha, the Alvinegro will host Internacional in the 17th and final round of the first stage of this edition of the Brazilian Women’s Championship.
The Brabas squad began the training day with a traditional physical activation session in the gym. Right after the warm-up on the pitch, head coach Emily Lima held a tactical session with the squad, continuing the preparations to face the team from Rio Grande do Sul. In this morning’s training, goalkeeper Rillary trained normally with her teammates after receiving an injection in her elbow.

With that, the youngster, after completing her physical transition process last Monday (17), is now available to the coaching staff. On the other hand, midfielder Andressa Alves is recovering from an injury to the back of her left thigh and remains under the care of the Brabas’ medical department.
Timão’s squad will return to activities this Thursday (20), at CT Dr. Joaquim Grava, to continue training with an eye on the match against the team from Rio Grande do Sul. It is worth noting that the club from Parque São Jorge has already qualified for the quarterfinals of the national competition and will play the final round of the first stage of the tournament to secure first place. At the moment, the Alvinegro has 38 points — 12 wins, two draws and two draws — 41 goals scored and 15 conceded.
Throughout the history of the sport, Corinthians and Internacional have already faced each other 12 times, with eight wins for the Brabas, three draws, and only one loss — 34 goals scored and nine conceded. In 2022 and 2023, the two teams met in the Brazilian Championship final and the Libertadores semifinal. Timão came out on top on both occasions.
