Analysis The numbers behind the result
Corinthians' clinical finishing overwhelms Remo's blunt attack
Corinthians' 3-0 victory was fully deserved, outperforming Remo both in expected goals (1.67 vs 0.17) and shot quality, with 7 shots on target to Remo's 0. The hosts' 56% possession translated into 15 total shots (10 inside the box), showcasing their ability to create high-quality chances, while Remo managed just 4 shots all game, none troubling the goalkeeper.
Yuri Alberto was decisive, scoring in the 26th and 45+2 minutes, with Kaio Cesar adding a third before halftime (40'). Corinthians' efficiency in front of goal (3 goals from 1.67 xG) contrasted sharply with Remo's inability to convert their minimal chances (0 goals from 0.17 xG). The visitors' defensive frailty was exposed, conceding three times from just seven shots on target.
The key stat: Remo failed to register a single shot on target, highlighting their toothless attack and Corinthians' defensive solidity. The hosts' clinical edge in the final third, coupled with Remo's lack of threat, made this a routine victory.
