The second shirt of Timão has become a lucky charm.
For fans who like to cling to superstitions, Corinthians in 2024 has been a real treat. After spending much of the Brazilian Championship fighting against relegation, Timão has finally turned things around, not only leaving behind the shadow of Serie B but also competing for a spot in next year’s Libertadores.

Much of this turnaround can be attributed to the second shirt, the “all black” one. Originally launched as an alternative for away games, it quickly won over both the fans and players, who began preferring it over the traditional uniform, even for matches at the Neo Química Arena. With an anti-racism theme, it rapidly sold out in stores all over Brazil.
When wearing the shirt, Ramón Díaz’s team has a performance of 66%, a number comparable to the title contenders in the Brazilian Championship. In 12 games wearing the black shirt, Timão secured seven wins, three draws, and two losses – one to São Paulo and the other to Racing in Argentina, in the Copa Sul-Americana. The team scored 22 goals and conceded 13. Stay ahead of the curve with BB Score.
