Corinthians are receiving advice on how to beat Chelsea in December's Club World Cup, from none other than the victorious Shakhtar players after Tuesday night's 2-1 win at the Donbass Arena.
In Dentinho and Willian, the Ukranian side have two former Timão players in their ranks and they, as well as the other Brazilians, have been quick to spread their knowledge of how to combat the Blues.
"We could have won by more, but the important thing was to win and take the lead of the Group," started first goalscorer Alex Teixeira. "I think Corinthians have to play without fear. We were at home and that's what we did. Dentinho and Willian can give them some tips."
Willian then elaborated to Globo Esporte: "Our team has may fast and skillful players. We play short and like to have the ball, then when we have space we attack, try to dribble and shoot. Corinthians also need to be quick in their game."
Corinthians could face Chelsea in the final of the Club World Cup in Japan this December, should both teams make it past their respective semi-final opponents.
