Santos FC win derby against Corinthians at Neo Química
At Neo Química Arena, Santos FC defeated Corinthians 1-0 in the Brazilian Championship. The match, valid for the twenty-fifth round of the competition, was played this Sunday (30), and Santos’ goal was scored by Oliva. With the result, Peixe reached 29 points in the competition. The next match for Cuca’s team will be on Wednesday (2), against Palmeiras, in the Copa do Brasil, at Vila Belmiro.
Santos FC’s first chance came in the 11th minute, when Gabriel Bontempo won the ball in midfield and passed it to Gabriel Barbosa to carry forward into attack. The center-forward passed to Neymar Jr., who quickly returned it to Gabigol. The Menino da Vila hit it first time, but without much power.
Peixe opened the scoring in the 32nd minute. After Gabriel Bontempo dribbled past his marker and was fouled near the edge of the box, Neymar Jr. stepped up to take the free kick. The number 10 curled the ball into the top corner, and goalkeeper Hugo Souza parried it away, leaving a rebound. Well positioned, Oliva took advantage and scored the only goal of the match.
Late in the first half, in the 44th minute, Neymar Jr. went down near the box with the ball. He got up, recovered, and passed it to Barreal. The attacker drove into the area and hit a low shot on goal, which was saved by the opposing goalkeeper.
In the second half, Santos’ defense neutralized Corinthians’ attack. On the occasions when shots reached Peixe’s goal, Gabriel Brazão made comfortable saves.
At the end of the game, in stoppage time, Davizinho made a great play down the right wing after a pass from Arão. The Menino da Vila dribbled past the defense and laid it off to Oliva, who shot over the bar.
