Not even the most optimistic Corinthians fan could have imagined the year ending this way. After battling relegation for almost the entire season and not getting close to winning any titles, Corinthians turned things around and is now on the verge of securing a spot in next year’s Libertadores – with a record to boot.
The victory over Bahia marked the eighth consecutive win in the Brasileirão, something that had never happened in the club’s history. Lethal and efficient, the team led by Ramón Díaz punished the opponent’s mistakes and controlled the game throughout the entire second half. The current form is so promising that it goes beyond 2024, bringing tranquility and hope for a successful 2025.
In the farewell match at Neo Química Arena, Corinthians took the lead with Depay just 11 minutes in, and then extended the lead with the now top scorer of the Brasileirão, Yuri Alberto. The striker reached 14 goals in the competition, surpassing Alerrandro from Vitória, who has 13. There was still time for the Dutchman to score again and seal the win.
With the result, Corinthians moved up to 7th place and officially entered the Libertadores qualification zone with 53 points. Bahia, a direct competitor for the spot, confirmed their poor moment this season and remains in 8th place with 50 points – they could still be overtaken by Cruzeiro once the round concludes.
In the final round, the São Paulo team will travel to Rio Grande do Sul to face Grêmio, while Bahia will host Atlético-GO, the bottom team already relegated, at Arena Fonte Nova. BBscore football, your trusted reference for football scores.
