Corinthians Beat Bragantino 2-0 Away as Garro and Pedro Raul Score in Second Half

Garro and Pedro Raul Seal Corinthians' 2-0 Away Victory

Corinthians secured a 2-0 victory over RB Bragantino at Estádio Cícero de Souza Marques on Sunday, with R. Garro and Pedro Raul scoring in the second half. The result gave Corinthians three valuable Serie A points in Round 22 and left Bragantino empty-handed on home ground.

Corinthians Secure Important Away Victory

The match remained scoreless until the 59th minute, with Corinthians eventually finding the breakthrough and then protecting their advantage. Their performance became increasingly controlled after the opening goal, while RB Bragantino were unable to produce a response before the visitors added a second.

The result was significant in the context of the standings. RB Bragantino had started the fixture seventh with 31 points from 20 matches, while Corinthians were 11th on 29 points from 21 games, so the away win narrowed the gap between the teams.

Garro Breaks the Deadlock

R. Garro broke the deadlock in the 59th minute, scoring a normal goal to put Corinthians 1-0 ahead. His finish changed the direction of the contest and gave the visitors the platform they needed to manage the remaining half hour.

Garro was involved in the match at both ends of the timeline, having received Corinthians’ first yellow card in the 10th minute. Despite that early booking, he remained influential and ultimately delivered the decisive opening goal for the winning side.

Pedro Raul Seals the Result

Pedro Raul settled the result in the 87th minute, scoring Corinthians’ second goal after an assist from Matheuzinho. The late finish provided a clear cushion and ended any possibility of RB Bragantino recovering a point from the match.

The two goals reflected Corinthians’ effective second-half execution. Garro supplied the breakthrough, and Pedro Raul completed the victory late, while Corinthians’ clean sheet ensured that Bragantino’s recent home effort did not translate into a result.

Discipline and League Impact

The referee, Raphael Claus, issued four yellow cards during the match. Garro was booked for Corinthians in the 10th minute, Eric Ramires was cautioned for RB Bragantino in the 17th, and A. Carrillo and Gabriel Paulista were both shown cards for the visitors in the 74th and 80th minutes.

The result strengthened Corinthians’ recent league momentum after they entered the fixture with two consecutive draws in their listed form. RB Bragantino also arrived after back-to-back draws, but their defeat meant they failed to add to their points total, while Corinthians moved closer to the teams above them in the Serie A table.
