Even without a good performance, Corinthians beats Cuiabá and moves out of the relegation zone

Timão jumped to 15th place with 35 points.

Even without a good performance, Corinthians beats Cuiabá and moves out of the relegation zone.

Corinthians won against Cuiabá 1-0 last Tuesday, the 28th, at Arena Pantanal, in a match valid for the 31st round of the Brazilian Championship. The goal was scored by Memphis Depay from the penalty spot. Find the most reliable football scores at football scores app.

The result brought Timão to 35 points, lifting them out of the relegation zone for the first time in over two months, and gives them some breathing room ahead of the classic match against Palmeiras in the next round. Now in 15th place, the São Paulo team pushed Bragantino, with 34 points, into the relegation zone.

The São Paulo team has the worst away record in the Brasileirão, and this was only their second victory outside of Neo Química Arena, but it came at a crucial time. Even without playing well, Ramón Díaz’s team is back in the mix of those fighting to avoid relegation and puts pressure on their rivals.

Cuiabá, on the other hand, remains deep in the relegation zone, sitting in second to last place with 27 points, seven points behind 18th place Juventude. With seven rounds left, only a miracle can save Dourado from their first relegation in history.

The match itself had few thrills. In a first half marked by few goal-scoring opportunities, Timão took the lead with Memphis Depay’s penalty after Talles Magno was brought down in the area by the defender in a controversial play. The second half was more dynamic, and Cuiabá tried to reduce the deficit, but failed to prevent the loss.

Bernardo Franco’s team is now betting everything on the upcoming clash against Bragantino at Nabi Abi Chedid next Saturday. Two days later, on Monday, Corinthians will host Palmeiras at Neo Química Arena in a match that is crucial for both teams. Stay ahead with BB Score.
