Standout star drives Corinthians in Santos stalemate | OneFootball

Memphis opened the scoring in the 18th minute with a composed right-footed finish, setting Corinthians on their way to a 1-1 result at Santos.

Breaking at pace, the Dutch forward arrived to sweep Kaio César's cut-back into the bottom right (18.). Timão's No. 10 then pulled into pockets to supply chances, his outswinging cross picking out Gabriel Paulista for a close header that drifted wide (24.).

Coringão's focal point kept asking questions. Another teasing delivery invited a firm header that Gabriel Brazão palmed away (36.). After the restart he had a drive blocked from range (65.), before sliding a pass that Kayke hit first time, only for the shot to be smothered (72.). He was still pushing late, a further effort charged down in the ninth minute of second half stoppage time.

He finished with three attempts, three key passes and four accurate crosses from six, a blend that pinned Peixe back and repeatedly targeted the far-post channel. Crisp combination play, underlined by 27 successful passes and 13 into the final third, helped stretch the Alvinegro Praiano whenever they over-committed.

Timão rise from 10th to seventh and visit Chapecoense next. Peixe host Internacional next.

How high would you rate Memphis's performance tonight?
