📋 Corinthians named for Copa do Brasil return v Remo, 1st round ends | OneFootball

Corinthians take the field this Thursday (23) at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) to face Remo at Neo Química Arena, in the match that closes the first half of the 2026 Brasileirão season.

The game is Timão’s first official one since the end of May, when football in the country stopped for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Beyond the sporting aspect, Corinthians’ match against the team from Pará is the first since the club was hit with a FOURTH transfer ban over debts, further deepening the institutional and financial crisis at Parque São Jorge.

Two weeks ago, Timão drew 1-1 with Cascavel in the countryside of Paraná in a warm-up friendly.

Compared with that match, played on July 12, coach Fernando Diniz opted to bring in Gustavo Henrique, Allan, and Labyad in place of André Ramalho, Raniele, and Rodrigo Garro, respectively, for Corinthians.

Remo, coached by Léo Condé, has not played an official match since May 31, when it beat São Paulo 1-0 in the 18th round of the Brasileirão.

In the standings, Timão sits in 13th place with 24 points, while Leão do Norte languishes in second-to-last place with 18 points.
