Corinthians take the field this Wednesday (27) to wrap up the CONMEBOL Libertadores group stage. At 9:30 p.m., at Neo Química Arena, Timão host Platense (ARG) in the final round of Group E. The match will be broadcast by TV Globo and on the GE.TV and Paramount platforms.

The team coached by Fernando Diniz finished preparing for the match on Tuesday afternoon (26) at CT Dr. Joaquim Grava. After a video with tactical instructions in the Flexform Briefing Room and a warm-up session in the gym, the squad carried out two tactical drills under the coach’s command. Set-piece plays were also worked on.

Qualified as the outright leaders of the group with 11 points, Timão do not want to merely fulfill the schedule against Platense (ARG). Ready for the match, defensive midfielder Allan is aiming for another victory with the CONMEBOL Libertadores knockout stage already in mind.

“We know how important this match is for the overall standings. We want to bring all the decisive games home with the support of our fans. That will be very important for us to reach the final and, who knows, win the title. The coach went over the opponent’s strengths and weaknesses. The preparation was the best possible. Now it’s time to put it into practice. We’re ready,” Allan shared.

Unbeaten at the top of Group E, Timão are followed by Platense (ARG) with seven points, Independiente Santa Fe (COL) with five and Peñarol (URU) with three.
