At the Neo Química Arena, Corinthians and Cruzeiro drew 0 x 0, this Wednesday (23), for the 16th round of the Brasileirão 2025.

The game was heated, especially in the first half, with strong divides and fight for every ball. But of little creativity.

The Fox had two good chances with Kaio Jorge, while Timão scared in a free kick from Memphis Depay, which Cássio - in his first match against the club where he is an idol, defended.

After the break, the scenario did not change much.

Kaiki and Matheus Pereira almost scored for Cruzeiro in bombs that Hugo defended.

Corinthians, which created little and practically did not scare Cássio, arrived with danger in the strong finish from outside the area of Depay, but the celestial goalkeeper defended.

The Dutchman almost opened the score in the final minute, but Cássio sent it to the corner. In the sequence of the move, Villalba took a header on the line.


🚦 Where it stands

With the result, Cruzeiro remained at the top, now with 34 points. Corinthians continued in tenth place with 20 points.

Timão returns to the field on Saturday (26), when it visits Botafogo, at the Nilton Santos Stadium, while the Fox hosts Ceará, at Mineirão, on Sunday (27).
