Corinthians squad nears zero in fan ratings after Chapecoense defeat | OneFootball

Corinthians fell 2-1 at home to Chapecoense in the Brasileirão, and the supporters’ backlash was immediate. According to Meu Timao, the Notas da Torcida poll left the squad hovering around zero.

Matheus Bidu opened the scoring inside two minutes at the Neo Química Arena in Itaquera, but the visitors hit back to complete the turnaround.

Among the starters, midfielder Rodrigo Garro received 0.4. Substitutes Matheus Pereira and Pedro Raul ended on the same score as the Argentine.

Head coach Fernando Diniz also fared poorly on 0.6, the same mark given to forward Memphis Depay, who started.

Left-back Bidu topped the ratings with an average of 3.2. The next closest name was referee Wagner do Nascimento Magalhães on 2.2.

The result leaves Corinthians 11th on 32 points. It is a run of four straight league defeats, three of them at home.

Amid fan protests, the club now prepare for the Libertadores quarter-final first leg away to Estudiantes on Wednesday at 21:30, at the Jorge Luis Hirschi.
