In Corinthians' 3-2 defeat to Palmeiras last Friday (13th), during the third round of the Brazilian Women's Championship, forward Jhonson found the back of the net for the alvinegro club after more than three months without scoring.

The goal came early in the classic. At seven minutes into the game, Jhonson received a pass from Gabi Zanotti, advanced through the middle of Palmeiras' defense, and finished past goalkeeper Kate Tapia to open the scoring.

Before this, the forward's last goal was on November 22, 2025, in the semifinal of the Paulista Women's Championship. On that occasion, Corinthians defeated São Paulo 2-1, with two goals from Jhonson herself. In the first play, the forward received an assist from Duda Sampaio, outmuscled the defense, and scored. The second came in the final stage, when the alvinegro jersey completed a cross inside the area with a sliding finish.

After that performance, Jhonson started in the second leg of the semifinal and also in both matches of the state final against Palmeiras. Even starting these matches among the starters, the forward ended the season without registering goals or assists in these encounters.

In the current season, the player started most matches as an option on the bench. In the Champions Cup, she came on in the second half against Gotham FC from the United States and against Arsenal from England.

In the Super Cup final, again against Palmeiras, the forward came on in the final stage and participated in the penalty shootout but did not convert her kick. In the Brasileirão, she was on the field in the 1-0 victory over Atlético-MG, coming on in the second half. In the following match against Fluminense, which ended in a 2-2 draw, she was not used.

With the goal scored in the classic, Jhonson returned to start a match among the starters after five games and ended the period without scoring.

Corinthians returns to the field for the Brazilian Women's Championship next Monday (23rd) at 9 PM (Brasília time), when they face América-MG in the fourth round of the competition. The venue for the match is yet to be confirmed.
