A survey carried out by the ESPN website Brazil on the last day April 11 showed that among the first 50 in the World Ranking of IFFHS Clubs, in addition to other traditional ones, the Corinthians owned the second-largest invincibility as the boss, only behind Sevilla (ESP).
On Saturday afternoon, however, the team from southern Spain was defeated at home by Real Madrid, by 3 to 2, ending a sequel of 34 games without defeat – the last setback in front of the crowd had been on March 13, 2014, for rival Bétis. The result in favor of Cristiano Ronaldo and his class was celebrated by Timão who, through his social networks, praised "the greatest invincility in the world" today.
The Corinthians have not been defeated in the Arena for 32 games. The last – and only – setback after 90 minutes took place at the opening of the stadium, in May last year, before Figueirense. From there to here, there were 23 wins and nine draws in Itaquera. The last of these draws was before the rival Palmeiras, who later triumphed in the decision by penalty.
Although social networks celebrated the largest sequence in the world, the survey already warned of the sequel of Club Brugge, Belgium. At that time, playing at Jan Breydel Stadium in Bruges, the team also boasts an invincibility of 32 games, with 24 wins and eight draws (all 31 matches of the current season 2014/15, in addition to the last game of 2013/2014).
In time: the next Corinthians games in the Arena will be on the 13th, against Guarani-PAR, by Liberadores, and in front of the rival Palmeiras, on the 30th, by Brasileirão – will perform punishment and will play against Chapecoense in Araraquara. The Belgian team will play at home on the 17th (Gent) and 24th (Kortrijk), both for the local tournament. If you don't lose these two games, you'll be isolated with the greatest invincibility in the world, as Timão will only perform six days later.
Current invincibility ranking as the boss among the world's largest teams*:
1- Corinthians – 32 games (23V and 9E)
2- Club Brugge (Belgium) – 32 games (24V and 8E)
