Memphis and Yuri shine as Corinthians defeat São Paulo and reach 45 points

Eight minutes later, Cédric took the corner, and striker Gonzalo Tapia headed to the corner to make it all level in the Majestoso. Tapia himself had the chance to turn the classic around at the 21st minute, but missed the target. Striker Memphis Depay, who started the match on the bench, scored the second goal for Corinthians at 39 minutes. Midfielder Pablo Maia poorly cleared the ball, and it fell to the Dutchman, who nutmegged defender Sabino and finished into the corner to make it his. Finally, at 44 minutes, winger Vitinho hit the post with an attempt from outside the box. On the rebound, Yuri Alberto controlled the ball and struck it hard to secure Timão’s 3-1 triumph.
