Relive Corinthians’ standout blunders from the 2025 season | OneFootball

Corinthians finished 2025 with two titles: the Campeonato Paulista and the Copa do Brasil. However, throughout the season, some mistakes became etched in the memory of the alvinegro fans.

Gazeta Esportiva has selected the team's three main blunders of the year. Take a look back below!

Tchoca’s Penalty

The young academy defender João Pedro Tchoca was responsible for Corinthians’ first big mistake in 2025. And it happened in a knockout match of the Libertadores, against Barcelona de Guayaquil. The player arrived late on Carabalí and ended up conceding a penalty in the first leg of the tournament’s third phase.

The match was balanced, but the penalty ended up hurting the team. After Barcelona’s goal, Timão conceded two more and returned to São Paulo with a 3-0 deficit on the scoreboard. Corinthians even won the second leg 2-0, but couldn’t overturn the tie and ended up suffering elimination.

Memphis’ Missed Penalty

Then in May, it was Memphis Depay’s turn to slip up. In an away match against Mirassol, for the eighth round of the Campeonato Brasileiro, the Dutchman tried a chipped penalty and ended up wasting the kick.

The alvinegro team ended up being defeated by the Leão, 2-1, and the star became the target of much criticism.

Yuri Alberto’s Chip

About four months later, Yuri Alberto didn’t learn from his teammate’s mistake and made the same error. This time, in a match against Flamengo, in the 25th round of the Brasileirão, the striker attempted a chipped penalty, but was stopped by Rossi.

The play shook the player, who missed other chances throughout the game. He managed to redeem himself by scoring a goal in the second half, but Timão allowed Rubro-Negro to come from behind and lost 2-1 at the Neo Química Arena.
