Corinthians keeper keeps perfect record against Vasco, check out the stats | OneFootball

Corinthians visited Vasco at São Januário, this Sunday, 24th, for the 21st round of the Brazilian Championship, winning 3 x 2 and breaking a six-game drought in the competition. Besides the three points, the victory in Rio de Janeiro also represented the maintenance of an impressive record of goalkeeper Hugo Souza against the team - after all, he has never been defeated by Vasco in his career.

In total, there were seven encounters between Hugo Souza and Vasco in the professional league, five for Flamengo and two for Corinthians. And in this context, the goalkeeper left the field victorious on all occasions. In addition, he conceded only five goals in these matches, keeping a clean sheet in three games. It's worth mentioning that this survey was initially conducted by the Estatísticas Corinthianas page, on X (formerly Twitter).

In the first round of this year's Brasileirão, when Corinthians beat Vasco 3 x 0, it was Matheus Donelli who was in goal. Therefore, before this Sunday, the only time Hugo had defended the Corinthians goal in the match was last year, at Neo Química Arena, when the match ended 3 x 1.

Now, Corinthians refocuses on the Copa do Brasil. At 9:30 pm (Brasília time), next Wednesday, August 27, the Alvinegro visits Athletico-PR, at Arena da Baixada, for the first leg of the national knockout tournament quarterfinals.
