Sub-20 duo debut for Corinthians futsal side in Paulista win | OneFootball

On the night of last Tuesday (16), Corinthians visited Ginásio Poliesportivo Parque Celso Daniel, in the ABC Paulista region, for a match valid for the seventh round of the 2026 São Paulo State Futsal Championship qualifying stage, and beat the opponent 3-2. The result put the Corinthians side at the top of the state competition with 16 points — five wins, one draw, and one loss — with 22 goals scored and seven conceded.

Alvinegro’s goals were scored by Patrick, Fellype Bancatelli, and Vinicius Dias. The first and third scored for Timão for the first time. The match also marked the debut of Patrick Perry (winger) and Michel Camargo (winger). Both arrived to strengthen the club’s Under-20 futsal squad at Parque São Jorge in the 2026 season.

Born in 2006, Patrick started the game on the bench and entered the court seven minutes into the first half, when coach Fernando Malafaia brought him on for a set-piece play. With his first touch of the ball, he fired into the top corner and was responsible for opening the scoring for Timão — netting for the first time as a professional.

Before joining Corinthians, he had spells with UJR Futsal (Rio Grande do Sul), Assoeva (Rio Grande do Sul), and Esporte Futuro (Paraná). Michel Camargo, also born in 2006, came into the match with eight minutes left before halftime and had been playing for Magnus Futsal before arriving at Parque São Jorge, in addition to earning call-ups to Brazil’s youth national team.

It is worth remembering that, due to the serious financial situation, Corinthians made budget cuts in futsal for the 2026 season, turning to the youth ranks as an alternative. Currently, 14 of the 23 players in the current squad were developed within the club, which corresponds to 61% of the total.

Corinthians now turns its focus back to the National Futsal League. Next Sunday (21), at 11 a.m. (Brasília time), Alvinegro will visit Campo Mourão, in Paraná, in a match valid for the ninth round of the national competition’s qualifying stage. Timão currently sits only 13th out of 16 teams, with five points, and is going through a long negative run in the competition.
