In an intensely competitive Serie A match between Corinthians SP and Criciuma EC on 17 July 2024, the home team emerged victorious with a 2-1 scoreline. Criciuma EC initially took the lead late in the first half (00:40:58) before Corinthians SP equalized early in the second half (00:53:50) and subsequently secured the win with another goal shortly thereafter (01:01:13).

Statistically, both teams were evenly matched in terms of corner kicks, each earning five throughout the match. However, Corinthian's ability to stay onside (0 offsides) compared to Criciuma’s single offside call indicates more disciplined attacking play from the home side. This allowed Corinthians to consistently apply pressure on Criciuma’s defense.

Criciuma had a slight disciplinary advantage, accumulating no yellow cards, while Corinthians received one yellow card in the second half (01:06:51). However, the fair play did not translate into controlling the match. Corinthians' player cohesion and offensive strategy after their first goal led to an incisive attack that quickly resulted in their second goal just over seven minutes later.

Corinthians' ability to respond quickly to Criciuma’s early lead, combined with their more precise offensive execution and fewer offsides, were significant factors in their comeback. Criciuma’s initial advantage and subsequent inability to maintain it, owing in part to less effective attacking play, ultimately determined the match outcome.
