On the evening of last Thursday (19th), Corinthians faced Chapecoense at Arena Condá, in a match valid for the seventh round of the 2026 Brazilian Championship, and ended up with a goalless draw. The tie left the Alvinegro only in ninth place with nine points – two wins, three draws, and two losses – six goals scored and six conceded.

Although the result was not positive in terms of the standings, the night was special for a family of Corinthians fans, who got to meet some of the players. In a post on its social media, Corinthians briefly shared the story of Suzimara and her family, who live more than 45 km from the city of Chapecó, in a place with just over 1,900 inhabitants – check out the video at the end of this article.

Maikon, her oldest son, even collected some cans to sell so he could buy an official Corinthians jersey. Maria Lúcia, the youngest daughter, is a fanatic and also follows all the matches of the Alvinegro women's team. At Arena Condá, before the start of the match against Chapecoense, they met goalkeeper Hugo Souza, midfielder Rodrigo Garro, and striker Yuri Alberto.

Maikon and Maria Lúcia also walked onto the field with the players. In addition, defender Erika, one of the main figures behind the success of Corinthians women's football and who still plays for the Brabas, recorded a video for the family inviting them to watch a Brabas match in São Paulo.

Corinthians, it’s worth noting, returns to the pitch this Sunday evening (22nd), at 8:30 pm (Brasília time), to face Flamengo at Neo Química Arena, for the eighth round of the Brazilian Championship. The women's team, meanwhile, will host América-MG this Monday (23rd), at 9 pm (Brasília time), also in Itaquera, for the fourth round of the first phase of the Women's Brasileirão.
