However, it was still the beginning of the year, the players were coming out of pre-season, and they still had a liberating match ahead of them. This was the most important championship the team would play, ball forward, the fans thought.

Corinthians out of Libertadores

This is the biggest championship that the clubs play in the year, what can we expect from a Libertadores after a melancholic Paulistão? The team begins the group stage, with renewed blood, but with results unable to keep the team going.
