There was no shortage of excitement in the thrilling first half of Corinthians versus Flamengo currently taking place in Itaquera.
It concludes the eighth round of Brasileirão-2026.
Highlights include Hugo Souza, Paquetá, Yuri Alberto, and Memphis.
Check out a summary of what happened in the initial stage below.
Fla doesn't forgive Hugo Souza's mistake
The first goal of the game came after a mistaken ball exit by the Timão's national team goalkeeper.
Jorginho took advantage of the gift, passed to Pedro, and the number 9 served Paquetá (3').
'It's from a protagonist…'
Corinthians managed to have more game volume as the minutes passed.
And sought the equalizer at 19' after a beautiful play.
It was up to Yuri Alberto to score his 50th goal at Neo Química Arena.
The third consecutive match in which he scores against Flamengo.
Out of the FIFA Date?
Decisive in the play of the equalizing goal, Memphis felt a probable injury in the move.
He made movements to see if he could continue on the field but gave up.
And ended up being replaced by Garro.
He went straight to the locker room, inconsolable with the pain in his left thigh.
He is unlikely to be able to defend the Netherlands national team in this FIFA Date.
Which will face Norway (27) and Ecuador (31) in friendlies.
It would have been a GREAT GOAL
Corinthians started to have more game volume towards the end of the first half.
The great red-black advance ended with Danilo crossing to Arrascaeta.
Until then "missing," the number 10 hit a stylish volley.
But Hugo Souza said "no" before seeing the ball hit the crossbar.
It would have been a great goal.
And it was a fantastic save!
