This Saturday, after the training session that concluded Corinthians' preparation to face Vasco in the 21st round of the Brasileirão, Matheuzinho emphasized the focus on correcting mistakes so that Timão can win and move away from the dreaded relegation zone. The teams will face each other this Sunday at 4 PM (Brasília time) in São Januário.
"It's a very important game for us. Vasco is a competitor in the standings. Our team has been working very hard this week so that we don't make the same mistakes we made in the last matches. We are very focused. We have to enter the field 100% concentrated. Focus on our football and our victory. God willing, we'll go to Rio and bring back the three points," he said.
The Alvinegro is going through a delicate moment and is threatened by the relegation zone in the Brazilian Championship. Corinthians hasn't known victory for six rounds and is in 14th place with 22 points – three more than Vitória, the team that opens the relegation zone.
A probable lineup for Timão in the clash includes: Hugo Souza; Matheuzinho, André Ramalho, Gustavo Henrique, and Matheus Bidu; Raniele, Charles (Maycon), Breno Bidon, and Garro; Gui Negão and Kayke (Romero or Talles Magno).
