Vic Albuquerque hails Women’s Brasileirão win, talks Corinthians future | OneFootball

Corinthians took the field at Estádio do Canindé on Sunday morning (26) to face Vitória in a match valid for the 13th round of the first stage of the 2026 Brazilian Women’s Championship, and beat their opponent 4-0. The result put the Brabas back at the top of the national tournament with 31 points — 10 wins, one draw, and two losses — 35 goals scored and 13 conceded.

Moments after the final whistle, midfielder Vic Albuquerque gave an interview to TV Brasil and commented on the positive result against the northeastern side, and was also asked about her future at Parque São Jorge, since her contract only runs until the end of the year: “I think we still have a lot to improve as a team, with us trying to be at the highest level possible. But I also have to deliver much more than I have been delivering. And about my contract, it’s something that depends more on Corinthians than on me. I have a lot of affection and respect for this club,” she began.

Later, she lamented the team’s elimination in the round of 16 of the Women’s Copa do Brasil against Ferroviária in Araraquara last Monday (20). Wearing the number 17 shirt, she revealed that the squad is still shaken by the elimination from the national knockout tournament: “We’re still a bit tense, we didn’t want to lose that match, we have to learn from what happened, it was a painful defeat. We’re still feeling it a lot, but we have to turn the page,” she said.

Across two spells with Corinthians, Vic Albuquerque has recorded 126 goals and 58 assists in 271 matches (192 as a starter), with 212 wins, 37 draws, and 22 losses — an 82.8% success rate. In addition, she has won 18 titles, including the Brazilian Championship, Paulistão, Conmebol Libertadores, Supercopa, and Copa Paulista. She is Timão’s all-time top scorer in the women’s game.

Now, after thrashing Vitória at Canindé in the Brasileirão Feminino, Corinthians turn their focus to the state championship. Next Wednesday (29), at 7 p.m., they will visit Palmeiras at Arena Barueri for the fifth round of the competition. Currently, Alvinegro sit in second place with seven points, two behind leaders Ferroviária, who have nine.
