Corinthians reach 15 home eliminations at Neo Química Arena after Libertadores exit | OneFootball

Corinthians were knocked out of the Copa Libertadores on Wednesday night, losing 1-0 to Estudiantes at the Neo Química Arena, their 15th elimination at the stadium.

According to Meu Timao, the club’s history of eliminations at the ground spans the Campeonato Paulista, Copa do Brasil and Libertadores. The previous Libertadores home exit came in March last year in the third qualifying phase, when they beat Barcelona de Guayaquil 2-0 but lost 3-2 on aggregate.

Just over a month ago they departed the Copa do Brasil at the same venue, beating Internacional 2-1 on the night but going out after a 2-0 first-leg defeat in the round of 16.

In total, the tally at Neo Química Arena reads four in the Campeonato Paulista, five in the Copa do Brasil and now six in the Copa Libertadores.

Corinthians return to action on Sunday against Fluminense in the 28th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro, kick-off 16:00 at the Neo Química Arena.
