Corinthians player ratings: see how they scored in the draw with Flamengo | OneFootball

The Corinthians could not take advantage of Evertton Araújo's expulsion and ended in a 1-1 draw with Flamengo last Saturday at the Neo Química Arena, during the eighth round of the Brazilian Championship. The performance of some players caught attention. Yuri Alberto, Matheus Bidu, and Breno Bidon were positive highlights for Timão. Meanwhile, Hugo Souza, Carrillo, and Garro were among the worst of the night.

Yuri Alberto was one of the best players for Corinthians in the match. The number 9, as usual, gave his all in most of the team's offensive plays. The forward was very active and played a game of close interactions, also taking advantage of Flamengo's high line to exploit his characteristic speed. Moreover, he started the play for the goal and was able to finish it with the ball in the net.

Matheus Bidu was also a positive highlight for Corinthians in the people's classic. The left-back performed very well in defense and won the main one-on-one duels against Flamengo's attackers, making crucial tackles. He also ventured forward frequently and was responsible for the assist for Yuri Alberto's goal, delivering a precise first-time cross.

Breno Bidon was another who had a good game against Flamengo. The number 7 gave the impression of being everywhere on the field and was frequently called upon by his teammates. He was responsible for setting up counterattacks, initiating plays, and also fulfilled his defensive duties, actively participating in the game. He also suffered the foul that led to Evertton Araújo's expulsion early in the second half.

On the other hand, goalkeeper Hugo Souza directly influenced Corinthians' draw. Instead of opting for a long kick, he chose a longer pass directed to the midfield, even without any movement from teammates to receive the ball. It ended up at Jorginho's feet, who organized the play for Flamengo's first goal. At the end of the first half, he redeemed himself with a good save from Arrascaeta's volley.

Carrillo, on the other hand, was disappointing. In his return to the starting lineup after a muscle discomfort, the Peruvian was very slow in his actions and was late in most plays, committing silly fouls. Defensively, he couldn't help, and offensively he was also not very creative. Unsurprisingly, he found no spaces and was the first to be substituted in the second half.

Finally, Garro also did not perform well. The Argentine was chosen by Dorival Júnior to replace Memphis, who left injured in the first half, but he couldn't create any significant dangerous plays and was not at his best in set pieces. A poor game.

Standings Situation
