Corinthians repeat run of goalless draws in Brasileiro after a year | OneFootball

Corinthians recorded two consecutive 0-0 draws in the Brazilian Championship again after nearly a year. The scenario repeated itself this Saturday (18), when the team played out a goalless draw against Vitória away from home in the 12th round of the competition.

The streak began last weekend in the derby against Palmeiras at Neo Química Arena. On that occasion, the match ended with no change to the scoreline and was marked by the sending-off of Timão players and confusion after the final whistle, which led to developments at the Superior Sports Court (STJD).

For the match against Vitória, Corinthians benefited from a suspension being lifted, which allowed goalkeeper Hugo Souza, one of those involved in the hearing, to play. On the field, however, the game had few clear chances: the only shot on target came from the home side, forcing a save from the black-and-white goalkeeper.

The last time Corinthians had recorded two straight goalless draws in the Brasileirão was in May last year. On that occasion, the team drew with Atlético-MG away from home and, in the following round, repeated the scoreline against Vitória itself at Neo Química Arena.

In the previous edition of the championship, the club had only one more match end 0-0, against Cruzeiro in July. In 2026, Timão also featured in the competition’s first goalless draw, when they faced Chapecoense at Arena Condá in the seventh round.

After the recent results, Corinthians now turn their attention to another competition. The team will be back in action next Tuesday (22) at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), when they face Barra in Santa Catarina in the first leg of the third round of the Copa do Brasil.
