The first half between Corinthians and Wimpro Guarulhos was completely dominated by the Corinthians side, who scored three times in less than three minutes and, even with the lead, kept pressing in search of more goals. The opposing team was smothered when trying to play out from the back and could do very little to escape Corinthians’ marking. Timão goalkeeper Kelvin was only called into action near the end of the first half.

The first goal came from a sideline restart, when Renatinho simply rolled the ball to Vinicius Paiva to find the net. The second came when Maicon burst down the left flank and set up Rick, who calmly finished to extend the lead. The third came after the young Maicon won the ball back, combined with Paiva, and with no goalkeeper to beat, simply smashed it into the net. The fourth goal came in the eighth minute, when Bancatelli was picked out by Igor Bredof and slotted it into the corner to make it 4-0.

The second half, in turn, ended up being more balanced because of the wide scoreline, with Alvinegro valuing possession and managing the result. With that, Wimpro began to pose more danger and test Timão’s goalkeeper on more occasions. Even so, Alvinegro scored once more. Fabinho found the net after collecting the rebound from a Da Bonja shot following a counterattack. Late in the match, goalkeeper Lucas Oliveira even saved a free kick from Enzo. Wimpro still managed to cut the deficit with an own goal by Davi.

After a comfortable win over Wimpro Guarulhos in the state championship, Corinthians now turn their focus back to the National Futsal League. On July 4, at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), Timão will face Umuarama in Paraná in the 11th round of the tournament. At the moment, Alvinegro sit in 12th place – out of 16 teams – with eight points.
