O Grêmio encerrou uma sequência de quatro derrotas seguidas ao vencer o Fluminense por 1 a 0, nesta terça-feira, em Porto Alegre, em partida válida pela 31ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro. De um lado, o Flu jogou mal e não conseguiu criar boas jogadas, enquanto o time gaúcho chegou ao gol com Diego Souza já no segundo tempo.

Com o resultado, a equipe de Vagner Mancini chega aos 29 pontos no penúltimo lugar, seis de distância para o Santos, primeiro time fora da zona de rebaixamento. Na próxima rodada, visita o América-MG no sábado, às 18h30. Já os comandados de Marcão ficam em oitavo, com 42, mas podem abrir ainda mais distância para o G6, que abre com o Corinthians com 47 pontos. No domingo, o Tricolor encara o Palmeiras em casa, às 18h15.

​ABERTO

As duas equipes tentaram buscar o jogo, mas foi o Grêmio quem ficou mais perto do gol ao longo da primeira etapa, especialmente com chances pelo alto. Com um início mais acelerado, Elias já colocou uma bola no travessão nos primeiros segundos. O atacante ainda voltou a dar trabalho para Marcos Felipe, assim como Diogo Barbosa, Lucas Silva e Diego Souza.

MORNO

Já o Fluminense teve dificuldades de encontrar os espaços e pouco acionou Cazares, uma das novidades de Marcão na escalação. As maiores apostas foram com chutes de longa distância que praticamente não assustaram o goleiro Brenno.

FLU PEDE PÊNALTI E PERDE JOGADOR

O Fluminense reclamou com a arbitragem em dois lances ao longo do primeiro tempo. O primeiro aos 12 minutos, quando Cazares pegou a sobra após chute de Martinelli e encontrou Calegari, que se chocou com um adversário. A arbitragem mandou seguir. O segundo lance foi aos 33, logo depois de Luiz Henrique sentir a coxa e precisar ser substituído por Caio Paulista. Nino desviou após cobrança de falta e a bola bateu na sequência em Diego Souza, mas o replay mostrou que foi apenas na cabeça.

NÃO VALEU

O Grêmio seguiu tentando chegar, mas foi o Fluminense quem chegou a marcar em lance invalidado após análise do VAR. Aos 11, o time carioca teve bela troca de passes pela esquerda e Marlon cruzou para a área. Caio Paulista ia fazendo um golaço, mas houve impedimento do lateral-esquerdo.

NA FRENTE

Pouco depois as coisas se inverteram. O Flu teve ótima chance com John Kennedy, mas o Grêmio encontrou a rede aos 16, desta vez em lance válido. Mateus Sarará cruzou na área e Diego Souza venceu fácil a marcação de Nino, subiu sozinho e cabeceou para abrir o placar. O zagueiro do Fluminense, aliás, fez péssima partida na Arena.

VITÓRIA GREMISTA

Nino seguiu tendo noite irreconhecível e quase deu a chance de o Grêmio ampliar ao cabecear nos pés de Douglas Costa. Entretanto, o atacante parou em ótima defesa de Marcos Felipe. Nos minutos finais, Marcão tentou colocar o Fluminense para cima, enquanto Mancini fechou a casa para proteger os espaços. O jogo seguiu bastante aberto, com Marcos Felipe salvando o time carioca.

Nottingham Forest have already turned their attention towards a defensive reinforcement after agreeing a deal for Ramon Sosa.

Nottingham Forest transfer news

Those in the Midlands have enjoyed a solid summer window, balancing the books through the sales of Orel Mangala and Moussa Niakhate, and welcoming reinforcements in the form of Carles Miguel, Nikola Milenkovic and Elliot Anderson. It seems as though they may not be done on the incomings front either, with Talleres winger Sosa next through the door.

The 24-year-old will join the likes of Callum Hudson-Odoi and Anthony Elanga in Nuno Espirito Santo's impressive list of attacking options ahead of his first full campaign in charge. The former Wolverhampton Wanderers boss may not just see his frontline improve though, with one particular defender now reportedly being considered.

The Reds are aiming to improve their forward line this summer.

According to TyC Sports via Sport Witness, Nottingham Forest are now considering a first offer to sign Gonzalo Montiel on a permanent basis from Sevilla following his loan spell in the Midlands last season. A World Cup winner, Sevilla will reportedly decline any offers below the €9m (£8m) mark for their right-back this summer.

As things stand, Neco Williams is in line to start in the right-back role under Nuno, as he did when available last season. Alas, it must be said that when the Welshman isn't fit, Forest lack an adequate backup to step into their side, which is where Montiel could come in.

For just £8m, Forest could land crucial depth in their pursuit of a season away from relegation trouble in the Premier League.

"Great" Montiel can compete with Williams

Proving that he can fill in for Williams last season, Montiel could now emerge to do exactly the same job in the forthcoming campaign. The addition of the Argentine isn't one that will steal the same headlines as Sosa, but it would arguably be just as important for the sake of Forest's squad depth as the Premier League gets underway once more.

Described as a player with a "great pedigree" by former Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper when he first arrived on loan last season, Montiel has quite the decision to make in the next two weeks.

27 years old and a player who should, therefore, be in the peak of his career, Montiel is reportedly keen to remain in Europe which makes Forest an ideal option. What's more, a familiar face among several other incomings wouldn't exactly be a bad thing for Nuno. As the start of their Premier League campaign approaches, Forest would be wise to make their move for the Argentine.

Fast bowler S Sreesanth was among the heroes for Kerala as they beat Uttar Pradesh by three wickets to register their second win in two games in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Sreesanth took 5 for 65 as Kerala bowled UP out for 283, before fifties from Robin Uthappa (81 off 55) and Sachin Baby (76 off 83) laid the foundation for a chase that went deep.Sreesanth is playing in his first full domestic season for Kerala since 2013 following his ban in relation to the IPL spot-fixing episode. He played the entirety of the 20-over Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy that preceded the Vijay Hazare Trophy. In the 50-over competition, he now has seven wickets in two games.This was the 37-year-old Sreesanth’s second five-wicket haul in List A cricket, the first one being his ODI-best 6 for 55 against England in 2006. He dismissed two of UP’s half-centurions, opener Abhishek Goswami and middle-order batsman Akshdeep Nath, and took the last four wickets of the innings, including that of Bhuvneshwar Kumar.In their chase, Kerala lost Vishnu Vinod early to Bhuvneshwar, but a brisk 104-run stand between Uthappa and Sanju Samson kept them on track with the required rate. Two quick wickets followed, however, and it took consolidation from the middle order before No. 9 M Nidheesh struck an unbeaten 13 off 6 to help them get over the line.

The Jaffna Stallions’ road to the final has been littered with games that they’ve won despite having at some point been behind the proverbial eight ball. Oddly enough, many of these games they’ve gone on to win comfortably, though those have been largely down to some stellar individual efforts.The most memorable such occurrence came in just their second game of the tournament against Dambulla Viiking. Having found themselves staring down the barrel at 64 for 5, Thisara Perera’s 44-ball 97-run shellacking would set up a dominant 66-run win. Then against the Kandy Tuskers, it was again Perera, this time with a little help from Dhananjaya De Silva, that helped the Stallions to a comfortable 54-run win, after yet another slow start where they had found themselves 26 for 2 at the end of the powerplay. Then in a win against the Galle Gladiators, set up by the excellence of Wanindu Hasaranga, what should have been a comfortable chase was made a little nervy by the loss of a flurry of late wickets.But on other occasions – albeit after semifinal qualification was secured, and complacency may have set in – these blips and lapses in concentration have been rather more costly. The Stallions’ first loss of the tournament could have been a lot more devastating had it not been for a Hasaranga cameo late-on that helped put up a semi-competitive target of 149. In their loss to the Viiking, it was Shoaib Malik’s 44-ball 59 that would get them up to 150. While in their final loss of the tournament, a late thrust by Thisara and co wasn’t enough to overhaul a gettable target of 174, after the top and middle order had let the required rate get away from them.Even in their 37-run semifinal win over the Viiking, if not for Hasaranga’s golden arm and Usman Shinwari’s laser-guided throws, it could have all been so different.Dhananjaya de Silva and Thisara Perera put on a rapid century stand•LPL

In fact, the only game you could say they were in control almost throughout was their opening encounter, incidentally against their finals opponents the Gladiators. Save for some vintage Shahid Afridi pyrotechnics, the Stallions had the best of proceedings, making light work of a 176 target, cruising home with eight wickets in hand.But if you listen to Stallions skipper Perera, this seeming dependence on individual performances is more by design than chance. Indeed, with a batting lineup that snakes along all the way to No.8, and a plethora of all-rounders to call on either with the bat or ball, Perera’s confidence that someone will deliver on the day doesn’t seem all that misplaced.”We can’t predict what will happen out there, when you will need to come in to bat etc. But at all times we try and do what we think is best for the team – you’re not always going to get it right though,” Thisara said on the eve of the final.”But I do expect our batting to click far more than it did in the semifinal, we bat deep because we have a lot of allrounders. So all we need is even one or two from the top eight – like Johnson Charles the other day – to hit form.”T20 cricket is also geared in such a way that it can very easily turn into a ‘one-man show,’ where any bowler or batsman can take the game away from you. For us the most important thing is to play each ball on its merits. If we plan too much also, I don’t think it’ll be a successful strategy. We need to constantly reevaluate the situation from over to over.”This ability to make decisions on the fly will undoubtedly come in handy when they take on a Gladiators side that has changed considerably since the Stallions’ group stage encounters against them. Those games saw the Stallions’ batters find proceedings as comfortable as they had at any point across the tournament, though they will be keenly aware of the improvements the Gladiators have undergone since those early tussles.”At no point will we underestimate our opponents, I said this before the semi-final as well. It really comes to which team on the day makes the least amount of mistakes.”If there are any concerns for the Stallions, it would be with regard to their tendency to sometimes lose wickets in clusters, while their running between the wickets hasn’t showered them in glory either.”There’s not much you can do about it (run outs) sometimes, because it depends on the talent of the fielder and whether they can execute their skills at that time. But of course batsmen need to be mindful as well, because if we don’t call properly then that can lead to misunderstandings in the middle. That’s also part of the game though, mistakes happen, so we shouldn’t dwell too much on it.”[In terms of our batting] we’re confident going into the final, even if we might have a slight problem to address in terms of losing wickets in quick succession. But the most important thing is that we collectively put in a performance on the day, as a team – cricket is after all a team game.”In the last game our top order gave us a good start, but our middle order wasn’t able to capitalise on it – but in the same vein in previous games the middle order has bailed us out after the top order failed. This is why I think, as a team we’re in a good place, and we’re looking forward to the final.”

A week after returning home from the UAE as a victorious IPL captain, Rohit Sharma, who played the last three weeks of the tournament at “70 percent fitness” according to the BCCI president Sourav Ganguly, arrived at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru on Thursday. It isn’t clear yet if Rohit is at the NCA to finish his rehabilitation or take a fitness test.There has been some confusion surrounding Rohit’s hamstring injury. It was expected earlier that he would fly with the rest of the team to Australia directly from Dubai on November 12. And only a week prior to the departure, Ganguly had asked Rohit to exercise caution given the nature of his injury.”Rohit is injured at the moment. Otherwise, why would we leave out a player like him? He is the vice-captain of the national [limited-overs’] team,” Ganguly had said. “We will have to assess him. I don’t know [when he can come back]. He hasn’t played so far since the time he has got injured. We want him to recover. It’s the BCCI’s job to get their best players on the park. If he recovers, he plays.”ALSO READ: Wriddhiman Saha back at India nets, on road to recoveryRohit had suffered a hamstring tear in his left leg during the Mumbai Indians’ match against the Kings XI Punjab in Dubai on October 18. He missed the team’s next four games, but came back for the last three, helping them seal the title with a match-winning half-century against the Delhi Capitals in the final.The selection committee had first left Rohit out of all three squads for Australia, but he was later added to the Test squad. If he is cleared by the NCA staff and Sunil Joshi, the chief selector who is also assessing the fitness of Ishant Sharma at the NCA, Rohit will join the squad directly ahead of the Test series.But it isn’t yet clear if Rohit and Ishant will be available for both the warm-up fixtures leading into the first Test in Adelaide from December 17.

Big picture

Remember this game? And this? And this one?The Kolkata Knight Riders probably had no business winning any of those games, but win is what they did. They have only won two other games so far this season, and if those jailbreaks were taken away from them, they wouldn’t be where they are on the table.Where they are is fourth, and within the playoffs’ range, but that can change quickly. There are teams currently outside the top four who have built a bit of momentum, and they know they can displace the Knight Riders, who have a distinct air of vulnerability about them after suffering a walloping at the hands of the Royal Challengers Bangalore. That defeat left the Knight Riders nursing the worst net run rate (-0.828) of all teams in the competition.How do you bounce back from the lows of 84 for 8? How do you do that without Andre Russell or Sunil Narine, or possibly both? How do you begin the process of bouncing back when you’re up against the in-form Delhi Capitals, who are gunning for a top-two finish and are themselves looking to bounce back from – a less severe but still wounding – defeat?There aren’t easy answers to these, but the Knight Riders will have to answer them soon. If they do, you might come to talk in hushed tones about those wins snatched from the jaws of defeat. “It’s the sign of a great team,” you might say, “when they win even when they aren’t playing well.”If the Knight Riders slide away from the playoffs spots, however, you will look at those wins differently. You will look at them and say they were warning signs of a team in decline.

In the news

Russell injured his hamstring in the tied game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad and didn’t feature against the Royal Challengers. Narine was free to play that game, having had his action cleared, but he missed out because of what his captain Eoin Morgan described as a “niggle”. The fitness status of the two West Indians ahead of the game against the Capitals is not yet clear.

Previous meeting

Half-centuries from Prithvi Shaw and Rishabh Pant powered the Capitals to 228, but that total didn’t appear entirely safe in early-season Sharjah. Despite slipping to 122 for 6, the Knight Riders still came close in their chase, thanks to Morgan’s 18-ball 44 and Rahul Tripathi’s 16-ball 36. It came down to 26 from the last over, and Marcus Stoinis sealed victory for the Capitals with a pinpoint yorker to bowl Tripathi.Shikhar Dhawan brings out his trademark celebration•BCCI

Likely XIs

Delhi Capitals: 1 Prithvi Shaw, 2 Shikhar Dhawan, 3 Shreyas Iyer (capt), 4 Rishabh Pant (wk), 5 Marcus Stoinis, 6 Shimron Hetmyer, 7 Axar Patel, 8 R Ashwin, 9 Kagiso Rabada, 10 Anrich Nortje/Daniel Sams, 11 Tushar DeshpandeKolkata Knight Riders: 1 Shubman Gill, 2 Rahul Tripathi, 3 Nitish Rana, 4 Eoin Morgan (capt), 5 Dinesh Karthik (wk), 6 Andre Russell/Tom Banton, 7 Pat Cummins/Sunil Narine, 8 Lockie Ferguson, 9 Prasidh Krishna, 10 Varun Chakravarthy, 11 Kuldeep Yadav

Strategy punts

• Shikhar Dhawan (69*, 57, 101*, 106*) has scored exactly half of the Capitals’ runs over their last four matches, so his wicket – particularly with the rest of the top order suffering a dip in form – becomes crucial for the Knight Riders. How do they get him early? Well, since the start of the 2019 season, fast bowlers have only dismissed Dhawan four times within the powerplay overs. He averages 84.75 against pace while striking at a healthy 135.05. His strike rate against spin in this phase (159.82) is even better, but he’s been dismissed six times in 112 balls by the slower bowlers, so the Knight Riders could look to attack him with Varun Chakravarthy or – if he plays – Narine taking the new ball from one end.
• Kuldeep Yadav has only bowled nine powerplay overs in his entire IPL career, but he’s not a bad candidate to try against Dhawan. In all T20 meetings, Dhawan has scored just 34 off 37 balls against Yadav, while being dismissed twice. The Knight Riders, however, might look to hold Yadav back for Rishabh Pant, who’s scored 23 off 21 balls against the left-arm wristspinner while being dismissed twice.
• Dinesh Karthik has a shocking record against legspinners this season: 14 runs off 18 balls, five dismissals. Against all other types of bowling, he has scored 131 runs at a more-than-decent average of 32.75 and a more-than-decent strike rate of 135.05. Morgan has also struggled against legspin: one dismissal in 55 balls, but . The Capitals don’t have a legspinner in their first-choice XI, but if they wanted to give Sandeep Lamichhane an opportunity ahead of the playoffs, this wouldn’t be a bad time to do it.

Stats that matter

• The Capitals are yet to win a match in Abu Dhabi this season. This will be their third game at the venue.
• The Knight Riders (6.73) have the worst powerplay run rate of all teams this season. That low scoring rate isn’t necessarily because their openers have traded explosiveness for stability – the Knight Riders haven’t finished a single powerplay wicketless this season.
• They are up against a Capitals attack that has consistently taken wickets in the powerplay, picking up 17 at a best-in-the-competition strike rate of 21.18. The early overs of the Knight Riders innings, therefore, could be a key phase in the game.
• The Knight Riders have been poor in the powerplay with the ball as well. They have the worst economy rate of all teams in this phase (8.260 and have only taken six wickets in 60 overs, at an average of 82.66.
• Given that they were only defending 84, the Knight Riders’ refusal to bowl Lockie Ferguson in the powerplay against the Royal Challengers was perplexing, but they were probably going by the data, if a little too rigidly. In the IPL, Ferguson has a middle-overs (7-15) economy rate of 5.05 and has taken six wickets in that phase at an average of 14.33. In all other phases, he has an economy rate of 10.57 while taking only three wickets at 74.00.
• If they play, it will be Yadav’s 100th T20 game and Ajinkya Rahane’s 200th.
• Harshal Patel is two wickets short of 100 in T20s.

Shaheen Shah Afridi took four wickets in four balls as his six-wicket haul made sure Hampshire ended their horror Vitality Blast campaign with victory over Middlesex.The Pakistan fast bowler demolished John Simpson, Steven Finn, Thilan Walallawita and Tim Murtagh’s stumps in consecutive deliveries to blow away the visitors.Having returned a disappointing 1 for 191 across his first six outings, Afridi celebrated an incredible 6 for 19 – Hampshire best ever T20 bowling figures, and the county’s second format hat-trick in their history. He became only the seventh player to take four wickets in four balls in a T20.It meant Hampshire ended a six-game losing spell to win by 22 runs, although couldn’t prevent them from finishing bottom of the group stage for the first time since 2007.Hampshire needed quick wickets in their defence of 141 for 9, and Felix Organ continued the trend of spin it to win it as he opened the bowling with his offbreaks and had 20-year-old Jack Davies lbw.Organ had Joe Cracknell caught at point by Joe Weatherley in his second over – the 21-year-old bowling three overs in the Powerplay and returning 2-13.Afridi claimed his maiden Ageas Bowl wicket for the county when he yorked Stevie Eskinazi, who ended the group stage as the tournament’s second-leading scorer with 413 runs.Ryan Stevenson bowled Nathan Sowter with a slower ball before Mason Crane continued the spin domination when Tom Alsop stumped Martin Andersson.Simpson threatened a comeback for the visitors as the run-rate climbed, he added 25 with Luke Hollman before Afridi turned the latter’s off stump into a javelin.Wicketkeeper Simpson helped take 17 off Stevenson in the 16th over, thanks to two huge sixes, as Middlesex required 37 from the last four overs.But left-armer Afridi, who flies home tomorrow, took four wickets in four balls to provide an explosive end to a below-par season. It was the second hat-trick taken by Hampshire this year, after James Fuller had taken a treble against Surrey in the Bob Willis Trophy.Having chosen to bat, Hampshire ground through their innings, as partnerships struggled to flourish against an impressive spin performance on a slow pitch.Middlesex’s spin triplets of Walallawita, Hollman and Nathan Sowter took 8 for 74 in their 12 combined overs to restrict Hampshire.James Vince chopped veteran Tim Murtagh onto his own off stump, before Alsop and Sam Northeast laid a solid foundation with a 32-run stand.But that was as good as the batting got for the hosts as Walallawita, Sowter and Hollman constricted them. Alsop was bowled while attempting a slog-sweep off legspinner Hollman and top-scorer Northeast nicked Walallawita behind to Simpson.Joe Weatherley split the leg side boundary riders with a perfect sweep, before he was plumb lbw when he switched into a reverse.From 55 for 1 after eight overs, Hampshire found their recognised batsmen all dismissed by the end of the 17th over on 114 for 7.The spinners forced the batters to play to the long square boundaries as an impatient Fuller and Organ holed out to long-on, while Ian Holland – following a six down the ground – was leg-before attempting a huge slog sweep.The latter two scalps fell to Walallawita on his T20 debut, having impressed with his left-arm spin during the Bob Willis Trophy earlier this summer.Stevenson found a hat-trick of boundaries off Tom Helm but leggie Sowter returned to bowl him and Chris Wood – as Hampshire bobbed to 141 for 9 in their 20 overs.

O atacante relata que contou com o apoio de líderes do elenco para superar o momento difícil.

– Eu tive depressão no ano passado, sofri muito com isso. Na época, eu estava no hotel e quis me suicidar. Me veio pensamentos ruins e eu queria saber como era me jogar do prédio. Então, eu gritei por socorro, pela minha mulher, pelo doutor Tanure, Diego Ribas, Diego Alves, Filipe Luís, o Rafinha, o Marcos Braz também. Eles me fizeram ser querido, ser abraçado. Eles tiveram um cuidado comigo, que ninguém antes tinha feito – contou Michael.

Desde a chegada de Renato Gaúcho, Michael é um dos principais nomes do Flamengo com dois gols em cinco jogos.

-Por isso, eu comecei a fazer psicólogo, psiquiatra. Hoje, eu continuo fazendo, mas apenas uma vez na semana. Sou muito grato pelo que fizeram por mim. Não tenho vergonha de falar isso porque depressão quase todo mundo tem, mas ninguém quer assumir. Orgulho não serve para nada, só serve para nos matar. A gratidão que eu tenho pelo Flamengo, pelos profissionais principalmente, será para o resto da vida. Quando eu mais precisei de um amigo, o Flamengo estendeu a mão para mim – disse.

Emocionado, Michael também expôs bastidores de sua vida particular. Segundo relatou na entrevista, sua esposa o encontrou algumas vezes atordoado durante madrugadas em que varava noites sem dormir. Seguro com o apoio do staff rubro-negro, o atacante desabafou com Jorge Jesus.

-No momento em que eu mais precisei de um amigo, os funcionários do Flamengo estenderam a mão para mim. Deus usa pessoas para te ajudar. Hoje, posso falar que depressão tem cura, pelo menos para mim teve. Eu consigo exercer minha profissão melhor. Teve um dia que não estava conseguindo concentrar e aí cheguei no quarto do Jesus e disse “me manda embora, rescinde meu contrato, sei lá faz o que bem entender”. Eu chorava, não conseguia me expressar direito. Não conseguia dormir sozinho. Ele disse que não me mandaria embora. Me perguntou se eu dormiria bem em casa e disse para eu ir – relatou.

A pedido de JJ, Michael passou a dormir com Ramon ou Matheuzinho. Com a pandemia, o isolamento trouxe medo ao atacante. Entretanto, o período trouxe maior consciência do jogador.

-Fiquei sozinho 12, 15 dias e nunca mais tive Síndrome do Pânico – concluiu.

Isso porque Roni daria mais sustentação no meio-campo para enfrentar um adversário de qualidade como o Galo. No primeiro tempo deu certo, e o time foi para o intervalo vencendo por 1 a 0.

Além da questão tática, Sylvinho explicou que Vitinho vinha apresentando uma sobrecarga, que induz o treinador a buscar encaixes com outras peças, mas basicamente as mesmas, já que ainda não se pôde observar as demais.

-Entendemos que o Vitor vem de uma sobrecarga, independentemente de ser uma semana aberta. A volta do Roni para dar essa consistência que temos no meio. Temos alternado esses atletas e buscado alternativas na função. Estamos trabalhando, não temos uma grande amostra para colocar outros. Estamos chegando e buscando um encaixe. A volta do Roni foi para sustentar o meio.

Sylvinho fez questão de lembrar que alguns testes já foram feitos no setor buscando esse encaixe e também falou da juventude de jogadores como Roni e Vitinho com os quais a comissão técnica tem conversando constantemente.

-Tivemos uma construção de três meias pelo meio, porque o Cantillo sai jogando muito bem e dita o ritmo técnico do nosso time. Com dois meias na frente dele, bem protegidos, como era Roni e começamos com o Gabriel depois de quatro ou cinco jogos. Tivemos uma opção com o Vitinho, que também respondeu. São atletas jovens que estão maturando. Conversamos diariamente com esses atletas – concluiu o corintiano.

Neste domingo, o elenco do Corinthians tem um dia de descanso antes de iniciar uma semana inteira de treinos em preparação para enfrentar o Cuiabá, no dia 26 de julho, às 20h, fora de casa, pela 13ª rodada do Brasileirão-2021.
