Corinthians hit with low fan ratings after 2-0 Copa do Brasil loss to Internacional | OneFootball

Corinthians lost 2-0 to Internacional on Sunday in the first leg of the Copa do Brasil last 16. According to Meu Timao, fans on its Notas da Torcida panel handed out low marks across the board after an apathetic display.

Raniele was the best rated for the second successive match, averaging 3.6. Kaio César followed on 2.8, then André Luiz on 2.6, Matheus Bidu 2.7 and Matheuzinho 2.3. They were the only five to score above two.

The worst-rated were Jesse Lingard, Matheus Pereira and Pedro Raul, all on 0.9, having come off the bench in the second half.

Referee Alex Gomes Stefano received the lowest mark of the night, 0.5. The officiating drew criticism from captain Rodrigo Garro at full time and from Marcelo Paz in his press conference over alleged threats made towards players.

The official said the club feels disadvantaged and that its department is assessing what action to take.

Corinthians must beat Internacional by more than two goals at Neo Química Arena next Thursday to qualify directly for the quarter-finals. Kick-off is at 20:00.
