Corinthians snatch late equaliser against Fortaleza | OneFootball

Corinthians drew with Fortaleza at the Neo Química Arena in a dramatic game this Sunday (3).

The match for the 18th round had a goal from Breno Lopes just five minutes into the game.

The home team only sought the draw in the stoppage time of the second half, with Carrilo.

Main offensive names of Corinthians, Memphis, Garro and Yuri Alberto started the match on the bench.

They entered the field together at the beginning of the second half.

Fortaleza would leave the relegation zone in case of victory and let this chance slip away at the end.

Fortaleza opened the scoring early in the match with Breno Lopes.

At five minutes, he received a beautiful pass from Matheus Pereira and shot across to shake the nets.

After that, Corinthians came close to the draw on several opportunities, with Angileri as the protagonist.

The left-back appeared well in the attack, making the Fortaleza goalkeeper work and even hitting the post.

But the clearest chance of a draw in the first half fell to Romero.

The Paraguayan striker missed a great opportunity by shooting out from inside the small area.

Dorival Júnior activated his starting offensive trio right back for the final stage.

Yuri Alberto, Garro and Memphis started the game among the reserves and entered the field together.

But the number 9 was again not in an inspired game.

He missed two great chances to shake the nets, one after a pass from Breno Bidon and another on a ball crossed by Matheuzinho.

The decisive player for the draw was Carrillo, who entered the field during the final stage.

He took advantage of a rebound from the Fortaleza goalkeeper and shook the nets in the stoppage time of the second half.
