Brazilian football had an expression of the highest quality and emotion in a 4-4 draw between Corinthians and Gremio, which many anticipated to consider as the match of the year in the country. Awesome. With luxuries, changes in the team in advantage, referee controversies with the well-known Wilton Sampaio as the protagonist and a score in doubt until the last second.
There was everything. An Argentine as the great protagonist at the start. Is about Franco Cristaldo. He had luxurious precision in Nathan’s 1-0, a filtered pass in which he exposed his brilliant sensitivity in his right foot. 2 to 0: with a header at 26 minutes, the former Huracán changed the angle to Cassio.
Huge joy for the visiting team at the Corinthians Arena. However. That joy changed sides almost in a breath. What happened? There was a penalty for Corinthians and at 44’27 Fabio Santos, left back, scored a goal. The São Paulo players already felt that they could go to the locker room with the result open… But better to wait. At 48’45” a corner from the right of the attack, taken by Matías Rojas, was headed by Lucas Verissimo: 2 to 2. The joy was now all Corinthian…
But there was more before the break. At 50’49”, Yuri Alberto also scored and Corinthians were 3-2 up. Awesome. The crooked girl couldn’t stop singing with the joy that the Vanderley Luxemburgo team gave her.
In the middle there was a fight because Sampaio did not caution Argentine Walter Kannemann in a play in which he threw an opponent to the ground without the ball, in a counterattack.
Gremio could have felt the impact of having scored three goals in six minutes to turn the result around. But he came out in the second half with full momentum. Far from feeling defeated, he went back. Everton (recently entered) went from the outside to the inside to get the shot angle two meters from the big area and his left foot shot entered the right post. Cassio? The Corinthians emblem stood still.
For the gaúchos the 3-3 goal was not enough. Lucho Suarez He did not want to be left out of the performance: seven minutes after Everton’s pearl, he contributed his own by converting from the right into an entry into the area. In 12 minutes, Renato Portalupi’s team was back on top…
In any case, with so many twists and turns, Timao fans felt that there could be more. They saw that their players were not giving themselves. And the 4-4 was against a luxe definition, by Giuliano (he had just entered), hand in hand with Gabriel Chapeco.
Something was missing: in stoppage time a clearly punishable handball inside the area by Yuri Alberto, but Sampaio gave a corner and the VAR did not call him. Queer.
