The Maycon steering wheel left the field crying in the defeat of Corinthians by 2 to 1 for Independiente Del Valle, this Wednesday, for the third round of Copa Libertadores. The athlete gave way to Du Queiroz at 18 minutes of the confrontation and was caught crying in the reserve bank by the transmission of the Paramount+.
The athlete had one night to forget about Neo Chemistry Arena. He missed the retreat for quarterback Murillo in the bid that resulted in the Ecuadorian team's second goal in the match. Soon after the play, Timon's 5 shirt was visibly shaken in the field and replaced by coach Luxembourg shortly thereafter.
With the setback, the Corinthians It was surpassed by opponents and fell to the third position of Group E, with three points, against six of the Independiente Del Valle and seven of the Argentinos Juniors, first placed. Timon will now have two out-of-home games in front of the two opponents.
Maycon began as a titular in the place of Roni, who had appeared among the 11 initials in the game against the Palm trees, last Saturday, by Brasileirão. Since returning to the São Jorge Park club in 2022, the player has lived with injuries and field performance swings. In April, it was the first time he completed three months without bruising in his second passage.
Maycon was hired by loan with Shakhtar Donetsk, from Ukraine, and renewed the bond with Timon by the end of 2023. In this season, he adds 13 matches, being only five as a titular, and has not scored goals and has not even given assistance with the Corinthian mantle.
