Yuri Alberto was the one who opened the lead for Corinthians in the 29th minute of the second half, while Matheuzinho did not forgive the rival goalkeeper to settle the result of the match in the 50th minute of the same stage.
A highlight of the match was Matheuzinho’s goal in the 50th minute of the second half. After an individual play on the left, the defender shot at the goal from the large area and placed the ball to the left post of the goalkeeper, who could do nothing.
Gustavo Caballero hit the post with a shot 21 minutes into the first half and drowned out the cry for a goal from all his fans.
