Corinthians hosted Rosario Central-ARG on Thursday night (20) at Neo Química Arena for the second leg of the 2026 Conmebol Libertadores round of 16 and beat the Argentinians 1-0.

His goal came in the 34th minute of the second half, when forward Memphis Depay hit a firm right-footed shot toward the near post and the Terrão graduate redirected it into Ledesma’s net. The No. 7 had not scored since May 10, when he found the net in the 3-2 win over São Paulo in Itaquera, in the Majestoso derby for the 15th round of the Brazilian Championship. Wearing the Corinthians shirt, he has scored six goals and provided four assists in 142 matches (114 as a starter).

Memphis Depay, meanwhile, played his first match for Corinthians after making his contract renewal official and returned in decisive fashion. The Dutchman recorded his second assist in 15 matches in 2026 – see the full ranking at the end of this article. The No. 10 joined André Luiz, Gustavo Henrique, Zakaria Labyad, Pedro Raul, and Kaio César on the list.

It is worth remembering that his lack of minutes lately was due to physical problems suffered by the Dutch star. This year, he has scored just one goal. Overall, he has 20 goals and 16 assists for Alvinegro, along with three titles won: the Campeonato Paulista (2025), Copa do Brasil (2025), and Supercopa do Brasil (2026).

With the duo available, Corinthians now turn their priorities to the Brazilian Championship.
