Garro ends 15-game assist drought and stretches lead in Corinthians assist charts | OneFootball

Rodrigo Garro ended a 15-match assist drought by creating Corinthians’ equaliser against Estudiantes in La Plata in the Copa Libertadores quarter-final first leg.

Four minutes into the second half, with Corinthians trailing 1-0, the midfielder slipped a precise through ball to Kaio César, who finished left-footed into Muslera’s right corner to level in Argentina. Meu Timao notes he also tops the club’s 2026 assist chart and the current Libertadores list.

Before this, his last assist came in May in a 1-0 win over Barra in the Copa do Brasil third round, a pass that secured progression to the last 16.

Garro now sits on 12 assists for 2026, ahead of Matheuzinho and Yuri Alberto on 4, with Gustavo Henrique and Matheus Bidu on 3.

André Luiz, Kaio César, Memphis Depay, Pedro Raul and Zakaria Labyad have 2 apiece, while André Carrillo, Allan, Breno Bidon, Dieguinho, Jesse Lingard, Ryan and Vitinho each have 1.

Fernando Diniz’s side now turn to the Campeonato Brasileiro, aiming to halt a run of four straight defeats when they face leaders Flamengo at the Maracanã on Sunday at 17:30.
