Corinthians prepare for Bahia semi-final after 1-0 first-leg win | OneFootball

Corinthians host Bahia in Itaquera on Monday at 21:30 for the semi-final second leg, leading 1-0 from the first leg and needing a draw to reach the final.

According to Meu Timao, the squad opened the morning with strength work in the gym, then a five-a-side warm-up on a reduced pitch, before Emily Lima drilled attacking and defensive transitions.

Corinthians will complete preparations on Sunday morning, the eve of the game.

The staff are hopeful of the return of Erika, who felt discomfort in her left knee during the warm-up in the first leg and was replaced before kick-off by Duda Mineira. Midfielder Ana Vitória remains in recovery from an abdominal muscle injury.

The Brabas lead 1-0 after Tuesday’s win at Arena Fonte Nova, sealed by forward Jhonson. Flamengo and São Paulo contest the other semi-final.

Tickets are on sale via the Fiel Torcedor website, with more than 6,200 already sold. Prices range from R$ 30 to R$ 50, with discounts for FT members.
