Wesley, Adson, on two occasions, Felipe Augusto and Murilo had the first clear chances for ‘Timao’ in the first twenty minutes, before at the stroke of half an hour, Matheus Araújo opened the scoring.

Very attentive, Matheus Araujo picked up the rebound and scored the first goal of the game.

The Brazilian team kept looking for the second goal and achieved it in minute 63, when Adson, from the bottom line, sent a cross-shot to the far post. The rebound fell at the feet of Felipe Augusto, who almost without expecting the rebound, scored the second goal, his first goal with the Corinthian first team.

The entry of five youngsters in the final stretch of the game gave Corinthians more momentum, who scored the third goal after a quick action by Pedrinho down the left wing that ended with a pass to the center of the area, where Adson finished off at will to close marker.
