Bidon urges Corinthians to attack in Copa do Brasil return leg | OneFootball

The Corinthians defeated Cruzeiro 1-0 this Wednesday at Mineirão and will play for a draw to qualify for the final of the Copa do Brasil. Midfielder Breno Bidon, however, believes that Timão should maintain an offensive stance for the return match in Itaquera.

“We entered the game very well, but we are not with one foot in the final. It will be a very difficult game, we have to be prepared. We need to enter with the mindset of wanting to win, to propose the game. That is what we will work on during this week,” said the Corinthians player.

“The group is united, we are very focused on the objective, but this cannot go to our heads. We have to keep our feet on the ground because Sunday will be a great game,” he added.

Match Situation

With the 1-0 victory, Corinthians will play for a draw in the second match at Neo Química Arena to advance to the grand final of the Copa do Brasil. A loss by one goal difference will take the match to penalties. A defeat by two or more goals will qualify Cruzeiro.

On the other side of the bracket, Vasco and Fluminense will begin their battle for a spot in the final this Thursday at 8 PM (Brasília time) at Maracanã.
