Corinthians received a kind of virtual treat from Conmebol this weekend. Already in preparation for the start of the 2023 Copa Libertadores, Timão had one of its good moments in last year’s edition remembered by the entity, with the right to video of a goal and praise for the celebration of the fans.
“Corinthians is prepared to make noise again in the Copa Libertadores. Timão will start their campaign in the group stage“, wrote the account in English of the continental competition, captioning one of Maycon’s goals against Boca Juniors – see video below.
The image captures from the beginning of the play, with Willian, the pass to Róger Guedes, the winger’s kick and the midfielder’s completion on the goalkeeper’s rebound. With several cameras scattered around, it still catches the reaction of a good part of Neo Química Arena.
The triumph was one of the rare black and white victories in last year’s edition. The team, then led by Vítor Pereira, only defeated Deportivo Cali in addition to Boca Juniors, advancing to the quarterfinals with stumbles over Always Ready and a historic spot on penalties against the same Boca.
Libertadores is scheduled to start in April, with the groups being drawn at the end of March. At the moment, clubs dispute the second stadium of the preliminary phase – there is still a third round to define the participants of the groups.
