This Thursday (30), Corinthians lost 2-1 to Racing at the El Cilindro Stadium, in Buenos Aires, Argentina in a match valid for the second leg of the Copa Sudamericana semi-finals after drawing 2-2 in the first match held at Neo Química Arena. As a result, Timão stopped earning a million dollars, which could make a big difference to the club's coffers in the future, mainly because it is currently suffering an economic crisis.
Values
If the result were different and Timão had advanced to the final, they would have pocketed at least 11.5 million reais, since the runner-up is awarded by Conmebol receiving 2 million dollars, which is equivalent to that amount in Brazilian currency. On the other hand, considering the possibility of keeping the cup, the black and white club would take 6 million dollars, which is equivalent to 34.5 million reais.
General match summary
Corinthians even started the game well, and opened the scoring after just five minutes with Yuri Alberto. However, Racing turned around in the final stretch of the first half in less than five minutes. Quintero equalized at 35 with a penalty kick, and at 38, he made it 2-1.
