The Corinthians were surprised by Coritiba on Wednesday night and lost 2-0 at the Neo Química Arena, in the fifth round of the Brazilian Championship. Defender Gabriel Paulista lamented the mistakes made by the team and demanded improvement.

“The frustration is big. It was a game for us to stay at the top. We had many days to work, we had possession of the ball, but we couldn't penetrate. Coritiba defended very well. It's about learning from the mistakes. I think their goals were our mistakes. We need to improve a lot if we want something big this season. We can't lose these home games,” said the defender to Premiere.
