History

The 2015 campaign was the consecration of Tite's work at Corinthians, a club he had already led to the Copa Libertadores title and the Club World Cup in 2012. In the season, the team played its home matches at the Corinthians Arena, in Itaquera, a stadium inaugurated in 2014. The core of the team had Cássio in goal, the defense with Gil and Felipe, the midfield with Ralf, Elias and Renato Augusto, and Jadson in playmaking. In attack, Jô and Vagner Love shared responsibilities, while young Malcom gained space and established himself as one of the championship's revelations. In the Brazilian Championship, played in a round-robin format, Corinthians finished as champions with 81 points and secured the trophy several rounds in advance. The title was the club's sixth in the national competition. The 2015 team is remembered as one of the most balanced in the club's recent history, which once again demonstrated the strength of Tite's playing model.
