- By Fabio Luigi / Central do Timão Editorial
Corinthians took to the court last Tuesday night (30), at Ginásio Wlamir Marques, Parque São Jorge, to face Wimpro Guarulhos, in their seventh match of the classification phase of the Paulista Futsal Championship, and won, without difficulty, 5 x 1. Vinicius Paiva, Rick, Maicon, Fellype Bancatelli and Fabinho were the ones who scored Alvinegro's goals. The three points left Timão in second place in the state with 19 points - six wins and a draw - 25 goals scored and five conceded.
Soon after the clock ran out, Paiva, scorer of one of the Parque São Jorge club's goals, gave an interview to Corinthians TV, the team's official YouTube channel, and highlighted the pace set by the team since the start of the match. He also highlighted the importance of the result for the continuation of the season and spoke about coach Fernando Malafaia's guidance.

"Important victory for Paulista's sequence and, thank God, another goal was scored. It was a very good result, with everyone working hard. On Saturday we already have a true final in Umuarama to climb the National League table and, God willing, we will emerge victorious."
Corinthians built the result against Wimpro in the first stage, where they had complete control of the match and scored three times in the first three minutes of the game. The opposing team was stifled when it came to passing the ball and could do little to get rid of Corinthians marking. Timão's goalkeeper, Kelvin, only went to work in the final stretch of the first half of the game. With eight minutes left in the first half, Alvinegro still scored with Fellype Bancatelli after a pass from Igor Bredof. In the final stage, Timão managed the result and even went to the net with Fabinho. In the final moments, the rival reduced with an own goal from Davi.
"That's exactly what he (Malafaia) passes on to us. Everything we do is trained. Each game is a different tactic that he puts together seeing the guys' team, and we are managing to execute it on the court. That's why the result is now coming", he said.
The young man joined Corinthians' professional futsal squad this season, as the club, due to the serious financial crisis, chose to reduce the department's costs and invest in athletes from Timão's youth teams in the sport. In 13 professional games, there are four goals and one assist, with seven wins, two draws and four defeats - 58.97% success rate.
Corinthians now turns its priorities to the National Futsal League. This is because, on July 4th, at 11am (Brasília time), Timão visits Umuarama, in Paraná, for the 11th round of the tournament. Currently, Alvinegro occupies 12th place - out of 16 teams with eight points. Those who place between fifth and 12th will compete in a playoff for the quarterfinals of the national tournament.
