📹 Red cards and drama till the end: Corinthians and Palmeiras draw
In a very heated derby, Corinthians and Palmeiras drew 0-0 at Neo Química Arena this Sunday (12), in the 11th round of the 2026 Brasileirão.
The first half was marked by plenty of arguments, hard tackles, and little football.
So much so that Verdão did not even have a shot on target in the opening half.
Timão had three attempts, but none on target.
To give an idea of how poor the football on display was in the derby, the biggest highlight was André’s red card for Corinthians for an obscene gesture.
With a man advantage, Palmeiras came back better in the second half.
Maurício forced Hugo Souza into action right after the break, but the Corinthians goalkeeper pulled off a miracle from Gabriel Paulista’s "friendly fire" after he tried to clear the danger and ended up sending the ball toward his own net.
And after Matheuzinho caught Flaco López in the face and was sent off following a VAR review, Corinthians’ situation became dramatic.
Curiously, Timão’s best chance came with nine men on the pitch, when Yuri Alberto burst forward from midfield, entered the box, went one-on-one with Carlos Miguel, but the Verdão goalkeeper made a great save.
With relentless pressure, Palmeiras pushed until the end and kept Hugo Souza busy, but the score remained unchanged in the derby.
🚦 Standings
With the result, Palmeiras remained comfortably top of the Brasileirão with 26 points.
Corinthians, meanwhile, who have now gone eight matches without a win in the national championship, stayed in 16th place with 11 points - one more than Cruzeiro, the first team in the relegation zone.
Timão return to action next Wednesday (15), when they host Santa Fe at Neo Química Arena in the second round of the Libertadores.
The following day, Verdão host Sporting Cristal at Allianz Parque, also in the continental tournament.
