Fabian Cubero

Fabián Alberto Cubero (born 21 December 1978) is an Argentine footballer who plays for Vélez Sársfield in the Argentine Primera División. A versatile player, Cubero started as a defensive midfielder but has played most of his career as a right back. He currently captains the team.

Cubero has played most of his professional career for Vélez Sársfield, winning five league titles with the team (spread over three different decades) and becoming the most capped player in the club's history (counting both domestic and international competitions). With seven, Cubero is the player with most local titles in the history of Vélez Sarsfield.
Club career
Cubero started his professional career with Vélez Sársfield in 1996. Under Marcelo Bielsa's coaching, he helped the team to win the 1998 Clausura league title, although he was not a regular in the first team. He was however a regular starter (mainly as right back, but sometimes also as defensive midfielder) in his team's 2005 Clausura winning campaign, where he also scored the first goal against Estudiantes de La Plata in a 3–0 victory that confirmed Vélez as champions. In 2007, Cubero was purchased by Tigres de la UANL of the Mexican Primera División.

After one year playing in Mexico, Cubero returned to Vélez Sársfield for the 2008–09 Argentine Primera División season. He established as a starter as defensive midfielder during the Apertura tournament (first half of the season). However, when Ricardo Gareca took the manager position in Vélez for the Clausura tournament (second half of the season), Cubero started playing as right back. After Nicolás Cabrera and Darío Ocampo's injuries, Cubero played the last games of the season as right winger. He played a total of 17 games during Vélez' championship winning campaign,[1] captaining the team during most of them.

On August 15, 2010, Cubero reached 300 professional games with Vélez (counting league and international competitions) during the 2010 Apertura second fixture win against All Boys.[2] After winning his fourth Primera División title with Vélez in the 2011 Clausura, Cubero (already 32 years old) renewed his contract for another 3 years.[3] During the 2012 Inicial, Cubero played his 457th official game with Vélez, equating Pedro Larraquy as the most capped player in the club's history,[4] a record that he later surpassed. During that tournament, he also won his 5th league title with the team. Cubero was also a starter in Vélez's victories against Newell's Old Boys in the 2012–13 Superfinal (in which he was sent off) and against Arsenal de Sarandí in the 2013 Supercopa Argentina.

In 2014 Cubero reached his 22nd red card, achieving the record of being the player with most red cards in Argentina since short tournaments (starting in 1990)

Camilo Sesto

Camilo Blanes Cortés (16 September 1946 – 8 September 2019),[1] known professionally as Camilo Sesto, was a Spanish singer. He was also a songwriter, a music producer and composer of romantic pop and rock ballads.[2] Sesto sang in two pop bands during the 1960s and won a contest in a Madrid TV show. He played a part in the Spanish filming of Shakespeare's Hamlet. Later, he teamed up with singer and producer Juan Pardo, but success would come on its own accord, with his own music works. Camilo Sesto has sold over 175 million albums worldwide, excluding sales of all artists who helped and produced. More than 40 productions for him and other artists, would add up in total between 300 and 400 million albums sold throughout his career and that of others.

As a composer, he wrote songs for artists such as Ángela Carrasco, Miguel Bosé, Lucía Méndez, Charytín Goyco and José José, among others.[3][4] Camilo produced and translated the lyrics to Spanish, of an album from the popular Australian band Air Supply. Throughout his career he remained as one of the most influential pioneer artists of rock/ballad in Spanish, that would inspire many newer acts in the Latino music world as well as across Europe.
The Mid sixties marked the beginning of Sesto's career. After editing his first record - with his band Los Dayson, in 1965 they traveled to Madrid to appear on Televisión Española's Salto a la Fama. In 1966, Sesto joined another band, Los Botines. In 1967 the band appeared in the film Los chicos del Preu. In 1970, Sesto recorded various singles like: "Llegará el Verano" y "Sin Dirección", with the artistic name "Camilo Sexto". He became his own producer and other artist's. His career started in 1970 and in the same year he won the "Revelación" price, at the "Olés de la Canción" festival.[7]

In 1971 and under his artistic name "Camilo Sesto" (with "s" not "x"), he appeared on Spanish TV's program "Buenas Noches" singing "Algo de Mí" (his first No.1 record). Algo de Mi reached the Number 1 slot in Spain and most of the Spanish speaking world, and it maintained that top position for a whole year in most of Latin-America. In 1972, Sesto received his first "Disco de Oro" ("Gold Record") award. That same year, he released the LP "Solo un Hombre" with songs like: Amor... Amar, Fresa Salvaje, Como Cada Noche, Con Razón o Sin Razón and To Be a Man (for which he was nominated for the best foreign song award). In 1973, he represented Spain with the song "Algo Más" in the second edition of the OTI Festival, which was held in the Brazilian city of Belo Horizonte. In 1974 his success as a pop singer continued with record sales escalating rapidly. His concerts took him round the world with such songs as "¿Quieres ser mi amante?", "Llueve sobre mojado", "Yo soy así", "Isabel", "Déjame participar en tu juego" and "Mienteme". He received further "Discos de Oro" for record sales.[citation needed]

On 6 November 1975, Sesto starred in the role of Jesus on the Spanish version/adaptation by Jaime Azpilicueta of the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar at the Alcalá-Palace Theatre in Madrid (Spain).[8] The production was very costly[9] as he financed it entirely.[10] His work was a success and received excellent criticism. The public filled the theatre and shows were extended to four months.[11] Both in terms of interpretation and musically speaking, Sesto's show was considered of great quality. Andrew Lloyd Webber admitted that this was the only production that could equal the original American version.[12]

After successfully starring in the Spanish version of "Jesus Christ Superstar", Sesto continued gaining fame as a singer and composer. Year after year, he had reached the top of the charts all over America, Latin America and in Spain, with songs like Algo De Mí (Something in me) (1971–72), Amor... Amar (Love.. to love) (1972), Melina (1975), a song about Melina Mercouri, ¿Quieres ser mi amante? (Do you want to be my lover?) (1974), Jamás (Never) (1975), El Amor de mi Vida (The Love of my Life ) (1978), Perdóname (Forgive me) (1981), the latter being his most successful hit, among others being Donde estés, con quien estés (“Wherever you are, whoever you’re with”) (1980), Amor de mujer (“love of a woman”)(1984) and the classic "Amor Mío, ¿Qué Me Has Hecho?" (My love, what have you done to me?) (1991), number one in the Billboard magazine on November 1991,[13][14] plus several other hits around the world.

He survived a liver transplant, in 2003 and managed to make a successful comeback with his album Alma, surprising the audience with the song "Mola mazo" ("It rules") in an exercise of self-assertion. The Alma CD includes some songs in English: Selections from The Phantom of the Opera and a duet with Andrea Bronston. Sesto returned to the stage in 2004 at the Viña del Mar International Song Festival in Chile. Sesto won many awards at Viña del Mar in 2004.[15] His last musical work was the singing of Bujalance's football team's hymn.[16][17]

In 2008, Camilo announced his retirement from the studio, and in September 2009 he announced that he would go on a farewell tour. He would tour the Americas (U.S., Mexico, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, and other countries) for the next two years. In October 2010, he gave his last two concerts in Madrid, which were released as his first "live" (and also last) album. A live DVD called "Todo de Mí" recorded in Madrid, was released around the same time
In 2011, he was awarded the "Highest Hispanic Pride" medal in Las Vegas,.U.S. That day was proclaimed Camilo Sesto's Day in Nevada.[19][20][21]

Controversies
Sometime around 2011 there were rumors of another Sesto "Farewell Tour", that some news mediums called "La Gira del Adiós".[22] Allegedly, tour dates were made, radio stations spoke about it, tickets were sold, etc. There were many convincing ads in local newspapers, and magazines. However, Camilo later communicated that this was nothing but a "hoax" to get people to buy fake tickets for a tour that he himself was not even aware of. Unfortunately, by this time it was already too late, irreparable damage had been done. Many radio stations and music mediums threatened to take legal action against the singer, if he would not "meet with the responsibility". Camilo was once again forced to come back into the media, television, etc.to try to clear his name. The courts went in favour of some institutions that eventually did sue.[23][24] Sesto eventually did perform on television a handful of times after that.[25]

Death
Sesto died on 8 September 2019 at a Madrid hospital from heart failure at the age of 72.[26]

Legacy
During the 1970s 1980s 1990s and 2000 Sesto created many hit songs and a great fortune, and almost every song came from his sole inspiration, being the author, interpreter, composer, and producer of all of his works.[27] Camilo Sesto has the record of 2 presentations daily for 20 consecutive days at Madison Square Garden in the 80s.

Most of Camilo's works are in Castilian Spanish, but he has also recorded songs in English, Catalan, Italian, German in Japanese and Portuguese as well. Camilo has released at least one album in English,[28] and some of his classic songs have been translated to languages such as Portuguese, German and Italian and covered respectively by many celebrities.[29] With a frenetic activity level in the 1970s and 1980s, he remains one of the artists with the most number 1 hits (totaling 52).[30] His number of "top 40" list-songs being 18 and Camilo Sesto has sold over 175 million albums worldwide, excluding the sales of all artists that he himself helped, produced and wrote compositions for them, which add many successes and millions more

Palmeiras

Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras (Portuguese pronunciation: [pawˈmejɾɐs]) is a Brazilian professional football club based in the city of São Paulo.

Founded on 26 August of 1914, as Palestra Italia (pronounced [paˌlɛstɾiˈtaliɐ]), but changed to the current name on 14 September 14, 1942. It is a popular and successful Brazilian club, with around 18 million supporters and 126,000 season ticket holders,[2] including a large number of Brazilians of Italian ancestry. Despite being primarily an association football team, Palmeiras competes in a number of different sports, most notably football. The football team plays in the Campeonato Paulista, the state of São Paulo's premier state league, as well as in the Brasileirão Série A, the top tier of the Brazilian football league system.

Palmeiras have won 14 national competitions, making it the most successful club inside Brazil.[3] The club's most important titles are the 1951 Copa Rio international tournament, 1999 Copa Libertadores, 10 Brazilian National League titles (Campeonato Brasileiro Série A),[4] 2 Brasileirão Série B, 3 Brazil Cups (Copa do Brasil), 1 Champions Cup (Copa dos Campeões) and the 1998 Copa Mercosul, as well as 5 Interstate titles (Torneio Rio – São Paulo), and 22 State Championship titles (Campeonato Paulista)
History
Palestra is born – opening game
At the beginning of the 20th century, several young Italians decided to start a club whose main goal was to form a football team that would be representative of the Italian community, and face the big names of São Paulo's football elite. Just over three decades earlier, Italy had been unified – a fact that was not known to some Italian-Brazilians and to some non-Italian Brazilians.

There were numerous Italian clubs, but each one represented an Italian Province or was geared to activities other than football. At the time, the game was starting to take hold and drew many players and fans.

The founders of the club sought out the Fanfulla newspaper, which was the media mouthpiece that defended the interests of Italians in Brazil, and entrusted young Vincenzo Ragognetti – another supporter of the idea – to draft an invitation to those interested in forming a sports club.

After several meetings, 46 interested individuals (led by Luigi Marzo and Luigi Cervo) gathered at the Alhambra Room on what is now Rua do Riachuelo, and founded a sports club for all Italian-Brazilians named "Palestra Italia". Ezequiel Simone was named club president. The Italian Consulate in São Paulo became interested in the new club because it would help spread the word among Italians that their country now had one flag and one anthem.

After some initial difficulties, Palestra Italia played its first game in the town of Votorantim (São Paulo State) – beating Savoy 2–0 with goals from Bianco and Alegretti to win the Savoy Cup.[6]
In January 1951, the Brazilian sports newspaper O Globo Sportivo ran a lead story reporting that FIFA President Jules Rimet would grant unconditional support to holding a world club championship in Rio de Janeiro.

The first Copa Rio was held in 1951, with the participation of eight squads, divided into two brackets of four teams apiece: Vasco da Gama (Brazil), Austria Vienna (Austria), Nacional (Uruguay), and Sporting Lisbon (Portugal), playing in Rio; and Palmeiras (Brazil), Juventus (Italy), Red Star (Yugoslavia), and Olympique (France) playing in São Paulo. Clubs such as Malmo, Rapid Vienna, Tottenham, among others were invited to participate in the tournament but not interested. The importance of the 1951 Copa Rio is linked to the fact that it was the first competition football interclubs with worldwide coverage, having been created even before the Intercontinental Cup. The competition was organised by the Brazilian Sports Confederation, with aid and authorisation from FIFA, and was named for being sponsored by the Rio de Janeiro City Hall. FIFA states that the Palmeiras is de facto the holder of the title of the first World competition between clubs in history. [7][8] Two editions of Copa Rio took place in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, Brazil in 1951, Palmeiras, from Brazil, was the winner of the tournament, while Fluminense, also from Brazil and coorganizer of the 1952 event, won this title in 1952. However, according to the standard FIFA statute, there are official competitions organized by FIFA or at least one of the continental confederations,[9][10][11] so this is not the case of the Copa Rio, officially organized by the Brazilian Federation.[12][13]In the future only FIFA executive committee can change the status of this competition[14]which is still pending.[15][16]

The Academy, The Brazilian giant
In the 1960s, the standard of quality of Palmeiras play – led by the one who would come to symbolize this period of football excellence, Ademir da Guia – led the Palestra Italia team to be called the "Academy" of Brazilian football.

Headed by Filpo Nunes, Palmeiras players won the most important national competition in 1965, the Rio – São Paulo championship, with stand-out performances. Blow-outs against top rivals included seven goals scored against Santos, five against Botafogo in their home stadium of Maracanã, five against São Paulo, and another four scored against Vasco. The title came to Palmeiras in another lopsided victory against Botafogo at Pacaembú Stadium in São Paulo.

That same year, the Brazilian Sports Federation (CBD) used the entire Palmeiras roster to launch Minerão Stadium and represent Brazil in an official national team match against Uruguay for the Inconfidência Cup. The day that it donned the green and white, Palmeiras as Brazil was victorious 3–0 over the Uruguayan blue.

In the previous year, Palmeiras had won the Rio de Janeiro Quadricentennial Cup by beating the Paraguayan national team 5–2 and besting Peñarol of Uruguay in the final.

By the end of the 1960s, Palmeiras won the Copa do Brasil and the Roberto Gomes Pedrosa tournament – the Brazilian Championship equivalent at the time. These victories laid the groundwork for the second Palmeiras Academy, with players like Luís Pereira, Leivinha, Emerson Leão, Dudu and César.

Led by Oswaldo Brandão, the team captured several titles in the 1970s. It was three-time São Paulo State champion – emerging undefeated in one of those tournaments – two-time Brazilian Champion, three-time winner of Spain's Ramón de Carranza Trophy, and winner of Argentina's Mar del Plata Trophy – considered the South American Club Championship.[6]

1980s: The lost decade
Accustomed to victories at the "Academy" in the 1960s and 1970s, Palmeiras fans saw the 1980s come and go without championships or titles. In 1986, Palmeiras fielded a good team – routing Corinthians 5–1 and playing an historic game in the semifinals of the São Paulo State Championship against that same rival, prevailing 3–0. The team had arrived at the final of the State Championship – 10 years after winning its last State title – but lost to Inter de Limeira.

On October 29, 1986, Palmeiras fans adopted the "Pig" as their mascot. At a game against Santos, the rival fans were chanting "pig"; the Palmeiras crowd responded with "Come On Pig!! Come On Pig!! Olé Olé Olé..." and "Go Piiiig...." A few days later, Placar sports magazine popularised the new nickname when it published an issue with Jorginho Putinatti – the symbol of that generation – holding a pig in his lap.

There were two noteworthy events during this decade. In the 1983 State Championship against Santos, referee José de Assis Aragão scored a goal for Palmeiras in the 47th minute of the second half. Striker Jorginho kicked inside the penalty area, the ball was on its way out but it hit Aragão – who was on the goal line about a meter from the goal and went into the Santos net. The game ended in a 2–2 tie – much to the chagrin of Santos.

The second unexpected event occurred on November 11, 1988, when striker Gaúcho defended two penalties against Flamengo in a game for the Brazilian Championship at Maracanã. Gaúcho was put in goal after keeper Zetti broke a leg in the final minutes of the match. The game ended in a tie, and advanced to the penalty shootout phase. During the shootout, Gaúcho stopped two shots, from Aldair and Zinho. To cap off the evening, he scored a penalty himself while wearing the goalkeeper's jersey.

Corinthians

Sport Club Corinthians Paulista (Brazilian Portuguese: [isˈpɔʁtʃi ˈklubi kʊˈɾĩtʃɐ̃s pawˈɫistɐ]) is a Brazilian sports club based in the city of São Paulo. Although they compete in a number of different sports, Corinthians is mostly known for its professional association football team.

The football team plays in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A,[nb 1] the top tier of the Brazilian football, as well as in the Campeonato Paulista Série A1,[nb 2] the first division of the traditional in-state competition.

Founded in 1910 by five railway workers, Corinthians was inspired by the London-based club Corinthian Football Club. Since 1910, Corinthians has become one of the most successful Brazilian clubs, having won the national title seven times, in addition to three Copa do Brasil trophies. Corinthians has a record 30 state championships. In 2000 the club won the FIFA Club World Cup's first edition as the host team and in 2012 the club won the FIFA Club World Cup for the second time after winning the Copa Libertadores de América for the first time.

The club was listed by Forbes as the most valuable football club in the Americas, worth $576.9 million.[1] The club is one of the most widely supported teams in the world and the 2nd in Brazil, with over 30 million fans.[2]

Since 2014, Corinthians has played its home matches at the Arena Corinthians, one of the venues in the 2014 FIFA World Cup, having hosted 6 matches during the tournament, including the opener on 12 June 2014.

The club's home kit traditionally features white shirts and black shorts, accompanied by white socks, since 1920. Their traditional crest was introduced in 1939, by modernist painter Francisco Rebolo featuring the São Paulo state flag in a shield, two oars and an anchor (representing the club's early success in nautical sports). They hold many long-standing rivalries, most notably against Palmeiras, São Paulo and Santos.
n 1910, football in Brazil was an elitist sport.[citation needed] The top clubs were formed by people who were part of the upper classes. Among them were Club Athletico Paulistano, São Paulo Athletic Club,[3] & Associação Atlética das Palmeiras.[4] Lower-class society excluded from larger clubs founded their own minnow clubs and only played "floodplain" football.

Bucking the trend, a group of five workers of the São Paulo Railway, more precisely Joaquim Ambrose and Anthony Pereira (wall painters), Rafael Perrone (shoemaker), Anselmo Correia (driver) and Carlos Silva (general laborer), residents of the neighborhood of Bom Retiro. It was August 31, 1910 when these workers were watching a match featuring a London-based club touring Brazil, Corinthian F.C..[5] After the match, while the group returned home, The men spoke of partnerships, business ideas, and general dreams of grandeur. In the mind of each one surfaced a great idea: the foundation of a club, after several exchanges in a lively argument, a common ground led those athletes the same dream. The arguments led to the conclusion that they would meet the next day to make a dream into reality.
September 1, 1910. In anticipation of heavy rains, the group agreed to meet after sundown in public sight. That night at 8:30pm, on Rua José Paulino ("Rua dos Imigrantes" (Immigrants Street), underneath the glow of an oil lamp the five workers reunited alongside their guest and neighbors from Bom Retiro. That night the club was founded, alongside its board of directors, who elected Miguel Battaglia as the first Club President.[5]

Corinthians played their first match on September 10, 1910, away against União da Lapa, a respected amateur club in São Paulo; and despite being defeated by 1–0, this match would mark the beginning of a successful era as an amateur club.

On September 14, Luis Fabi scored Corinthians' first goal against Estrela Polar, another amateur club in the city, and Corinthians won their first game 2–0.

With good results and an increasing number of supporters, Corinthians joined the Liga Paulista, after winning two qualifying games, and played in the São Paulo State Championship for the first time, in 1913. Just one year after joining the league, Corinthians was crowned champion for the first time (in 1914), and were again two years later. There were many fly-by-night teams popping up in São Paulo at the time, and during the first practice held by Corinthians a banner was placed by the side of the field stating "This One Will Last".
The year of 1922, the Centennial of Brazilian Independence, marks the start of Corinthians hegemony in the São Paulo State Championship. As football was almost exclusively played at Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo by that time, the two state champions were considered to be the two top clubs in Brazil. After defeating the Rio de Janeiro State Championship champion of that year, América, Corinthians joined the company of the great teams in Brazil.

The same year also marked the first of three State Championships in a row, something that happened again in 1928–30 and 1937–39.

Corinthians seemed destined to win State Championships in threes; after six years without being a champions, they came won three more from 1937 the 1939. The 1940s were a more difficult time; and the club would win a championship in 1941 and would only win their next in 1951.

At the beginning of the 1950s Corinthians made history in the São Paulo Championship. In 1951, the team composed of Carbone, Cláudio, Luisinho, Baltasar and Mário scored 103 goals in thirty matches of the São Paulo Championship, registering an average of 3.43 per game. Carbone was the top goalscorer of the competition with 30 goals. The club would also win the São Paulo Championships of 1952 and 1954. In this same decade, Corinthians were champions three times of the Rio-São Paulo Championship (1950, 1953 and 1954), the tournament that was becoming most important in the country with the increased participation of the greatest clubs from the two most important footballing states in the country.

In 1953, in a championship in Venezuela, Corinthians won the Small Cup of the World, a championship that many consider as a precursor of the Worldwide Championship of Clubs. On the occasion, Corinthians, substituting for Vasco da Gama, went to Caracas, the Venezuelan capital and recorded six consecutive victories against Roma (1–0 and 3–1), Barcelona (3–2 and 1–0) and Selection of Caracas (2–1 and 2–0). The club would also win the Cup of the Centenary of São Paulo, in the same year (1954).
After the triumphs in the São Paulo Championship and the Rio-São Paulo of 1954, Corinthians had a lengthy title drought. The breakthrough finally came when they won the São Paulo state championship in 1977, breaking a string of 23 years without a major title.

Under the leadership of Sócrates, Wladimir and Casagrande, Corinthians were the first Brazilian club in which players decided about concentração, a common Brazilian practice where the football players were locked up in a hotel days before a game, and discussed politics. (In the early 1980s, military dictatorship, after two decades, ended in Brazil). In 1982, before the election of government of São Paulo State, the team wore a kit with the words: DIA 15 VOTE (Vote on 15th),[6] trying to motivate the biggest number of fans to vote.

In 1990, Corinthians won their first Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, beating their rivals, São Paulo in the final at the opponents' own stadium, Estádio do Morumbi.[7] In the following year, Corinthians beat Flamengo and won the Supercopa do Brasil.[8] In the 1995, the club won the Copa do Brasil for the first time, beating Grêmio in the final at the Estádio Olímpico Monumental in Porto Alegre.[9] In the same decade, the club won the state championship in 1995, 1997 and 1999,[10] and won the national championship again in 1998 and in 1999.[11]

In 2001 and in 2003[10] and the Copa do Brasil in 2002, beating Brasiliense in the final.[12]

Between 1990 and 2005, the club also won the Ramón de Carranza Trophy in 1996, the Rio-São Paulo Tournament in 2002, the São Paulo Youth Cup in 1995, 1999, 2004, and 2005, and the Dallas Cup in 1999 and 2000.

The club's situation in early 2004 was among the most difficult in their history. Bad administration, lack of money and terrible campaigns both in the 2003 Brazilian Championship and in the 2004 São Paulo State Championship caused their millions of supporters to worry. Fortunately, some young players and a new manager Tite helped the team to improve from their terrible start. At the end of the championship, Corinthians finished in 5th place and gained entry to the Copa Sudamericana (a minor continental championship).

This situation was one of the factors which enabled Corinthians' president, Alberto Dualib, to convince the club's advisors to sign a controversial deal with an international fund of investors called Media Sports Investment. The deal granted the company a large degree of control over the club for 10 years in exchange for large financial investments in return. This has brought many quality players to the team, such as Carlos Tevez, Roger, Javier Mascherano and Carlos Alberto.

Despite the MSI investments, Corinthians experienced a slow start in the 2005 state championship, but managed to improve as it progressed, eventually managing to finish second. Their start to the Brazilian championship during 2005 was difficult, too, but after Daniel Passarella's dismissal (due to an unexpected 5–1 loss to Corinthians' rivals, São Paulo), the club finished the championship round well, and were eventually crowned Brazilian Champions for the fourth time, after a controversial annulment of eleven games due to a betting scandal.

The relationship between Corinthians' managers and the MSI president, Kia Joorabchian was not good, and after being eliminated in the Copa Libertadores, the club experienced a crisis which was responsible for the bad performances for the rest of 2006. Eventually, the partnership came to an end.[13]

On December 2, 2007, following a 1–1 draw away to Grêmio, Corinthians were relegated to the second division.
Corinthians, who won promotion to the top division of Brazilian football for 2009 by winning the Serie B tournament, signed with three-time FIFA Player of the Year Ronaldo.[14][15] In 2009, led by Ronaldo, Corinthians won their 26th Campeonato Paulista and their third Copa do Brasil. Confirming the club's good moment, Corinthians finished the Campeonato Brasileiro 2010 in 3rd place, granting their place on the subsequent Copa Libertadores. After being eliminated from the South American tournament by the relatively less traditional Deportes Tolima, though, Corinthians saw Ronaldo retire from football. To replace him, the club signed with other 2006 national squad veteran Adriano.[16] In 2011, Corinthians won their fifth national title.

On July 4, after reaching the final of the 2012 Copa Libertadores undefeated, Corinthians won its first title after a two-match final against 6-time champions Boca Juniors by drawing 1–1 in Argentina and accomplishing an inaugural victory at the Estádio do Pacaembu in São Paulo winning 2–0, becoming the ninth Brazilian side to win the Copa Libertadores.[17][18] After this historical title, Corinthians is considered the most valuable club in Brazil.[19] The club won the 2012 FIFA Club World Cup for their second time after defeating English club Chelsea 1–0 on December 16, 2012

Com a estreia de Lady Night, em abril, Werneck tornou-se a primeira mulher a apresentar um programa de entrevistas do gênero late night em uma emissora por assinatura na televisão brasileira. Em 2018, interpretou a divertida Lucrécia em Deus Salve o Rei, novela das sete da Globo.

Em termos de atuação, Tatá destaca-se por sua hábil improvisação, e em maio de 2016, foi considerada pela jornalista Nathália Carapeços, do jornal Zero Hora, "um dos principais nomes do humor no país". Em 2010, a atriz foi eleita a humorista mais engraçada do país pelos leitores do site Universo Online. Em 2013, recebeu a alcunha "Rainha do Improviso" do portal iG e, em 2014, conquistou o título de "Atriz Revelação" em uma enquete realizada pelo Folha de S. Paulo com os telespectadores da Rede Globo. Além disso, foi nomeada "Mulher do Ano" pela edição brasileira da revista masculina GQ e converteu-se na primeira comediante a estrelar uma propaganda da empresa de cosméticos L'Oréal. Em maio de 2016, a revista Capricho nomeou-a "Rainha da Comédia".

Além de atriz, Tatá é vocalista de um grupo musical chamado Renatinho, desde 2015, e atua ativamente em defesa da proteção aos animais e da inclusão social das pessoas com deficiência, tendo sido um dos fundadores do primeiro grupo teatral brasileiro a produzir peças acessíveis àqueles, chamado Os Inclusos e os Sisos - Teatro de Mobilização pela Diversidade.
Talita Werneck Arguelhes nasceu em 11 de agosto de 1983, na Barra da Tijuca, no município do Rio de Janeiro.[3] Filha da escritora Cláudia Werneck, descendente de alemães, e do editor Alberto de Jesus Arguelhes, descendente de portugueses e espanhóis, ela tem um irmão mais velho, Diego Werneck Arguelhes, doutorado em direito e professor.[4][5][6] Tatá educou-se em colégios tradicionais, como o Santo Agostinho e o Colégio PH, mas foi expulsa de ambas as instituições por conduta inadequada.[7] Numa delas, organizou um abaixo-assinado para retirar o diretor.[3] Aos nove anos, foi matriculada em um curso de teatro realizado pela atriz Sura Berditchevsky,[8] e, aos onze anos, atuou em sua primeira peça profissional no musical Annie.[5] Em 1994, participou do programa Xuxa Park, de Xuxa Meneghel, a quem a atriz creditou, em 2014, a inspiração para a adoção do nome artístico "Tatá".[9] Formou-se em Publicidade e Propaganda, na PUC do Rio, e em Artes Cênicas, na Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro,[3] e, em 2003, contribuiu para a fundação do grupo de teatro Os Inclusos e os Sisos - Teatro de Mobilização pela Diversidade, o primeiro brasileiro a realizar espetáculos acessíveis às pessoas com quaisquer tipos de deficiência.[5][10]

O seu primeiro trabalho em um programa televisionado foi na série Dilemas de Irene, em 2008.[11] Em 2009, a atriz interpretou Carla, em Os Buchas, e participou do espetáculo Improvável, da Cia. Barbixas de Humor.[3][12] No ano seguinte, Tatá estrelou a produção DezImprovisa, juntamente com o humorista Rodrigo Capella, que foi assistida por trezentos mil espectadores em apenas um ano de exibição por todo o Brasil. O espetáculo era desenvolvido pela improvisação dos atores e registrou bastante êxito tanto com o público quanto com a imprensa.[13] Também em 2010, Tatá fez a sua primeira aparição na extinta MTV Brasil, no programa humorístico Quinta Categoria, juntamente com Paulinho Serra e Rodrigo Capella, e, devido às gravações, foi viver em São Paulo.[14] Ainda no mesmo ano, ela integrou o elenco de Comédia MTV, com Marcelo Adnet, Dani Calabresa, Bento Ribeiro, Fabio Rabin, Paulinho Serra, Rafael Queiroga, Guilherme Santana e Rodrigo Capella, e, em agosto, foi eleita pelos leitores do site Universo Online (UOL) a humorista mais engraçada do Brasil.[15][16] Na MTV, também estrelou os programas Comédia MTV ao Vivo e Trolalá, ambos em 2012, e Tá Quente, no início de 2013.[3]

Em 2010, participou do filme Podia Ser Pior, com Fábio Porchat, Fernando Caruso, Gregorio Duvivier, entre outros, e, no ano seguinte, contracenou novamente com Porchat como protagonista em Teste de Elenco, ambos dirigidos por Ian SBF.[17][18] Em outubro de 2012, obteve um breve papel em De Pernas Pro Ar 2, com Ingrid Guimarães, Maria Paula e Luís Miranda. Nesse, Tatá interpretou uma atriz decadente vítima de cleptomania, que passava uma temporada em um spa, para o qual a personagem de Ingrid vai à procura de descanso e vivencia situações cômicas.[19]

O estrelato nacional
Quando De Pernas Pro Ar 2 estreou nos cinemas, em dezembro de 2012, registrou êxito de bilheteria, ultrapassando a marca de 4,8 milhões de espectadores.[20] Por essa altura, Tatá recebera propostas contratuais com a Rede Bandeirantes e cogitava renovar o contrato com a MTV, mas foi contatada por Bruna Bueno, produtora de elenco da Rede Globo, que a informou sobre exames avaliativos que a emissora estaria promovendo para a sua próxima telenovela a ser exibida às 21 horas. Embora acreditasse não se enquadrar no "padrão-novela", a atriz realizou desempenho excelente, no início de 2013, e foi admitida na produção,[21] firmando contrato com a emissora em 1.º de fevereiro.[7][22]

Em 20 de maio de 2013, ocorreu a estreia de Amor à Vida.[23] Na trama de Walcyr Carrasco, Tatá viveu Valdirene, uma piriguete que não sabia ser sensual, como a própria atriz descreveu,[24] filha da ex-chacrete "Márcia" (interpretada por Elizabeth Savalla), que a instruía a ascender na vida por meio de um casamento com um homem rico.[25] Embora apaixonada por Carlito (Anderson Di Rizzi), com quem tem uma filha,[26] a piriguete não perdia o foco e assediava várias personalidades famosas, entre elas o futebolista Neymar, o cantor Gusttavo Lima e o atleta Gustavo Borges.[23][27] Em sua incessante busca por fama, a moça conseguiu entrar no reality show Big Brother Brasil 14 e, autorizada pelos produtores da novela a improvisar situações com os verdadeiros participantes, Tatá proporcionou momentos cômicos como Valdirene, que, quando eliminada, precisou de ser retirada à força.[28][29]

A personagem repercutiu positivamente em todo o país.[30] Numa pesquisa realizada com os telespectadores da emissora em São Paulo, por exemplo, Valdirene, Félix (Mateus Solano) e Márcia (Elizabeth Savala) foram eleitos os mais populares entre o público, tendo todos aceitação "absurda", de acordo com os realizadores da enquete.[31] Além disso, alçou a atriz ao estrelato nacional e fê-la receber o troféu "Melhor Atriz Revelação" tanto no Prêmio Extra de Televisão quanto no Prêmio Contigo! e no Melhores do Ano,[32][33][34] bem como ser eleita "Atriz Revelação" pelos espectadores da emissora, em março de 2014, ultrapassando Juliana Paiva e Maria Casadevall.[35] Tamanho foi o sucesso que, em fevereiro de 2014, a atriz recebeu uma indicação à premiação Shorty Awards, nos Estados Unidos, na categoria "Melhor Comediante", que acabou por ser entregue ao americano Patton Oswalt.[36][37] No entanto, em razão do êxito de sua atuação, a intérprete foi requisitada para diversos comerciais e campanhas e, consequentemente, no início de 2014, foi chamada "a figura do momento" pela colunista Mônica Bergamo, do Folha de S. Paulo.[32][38]

Em novembro de 2013, Tatá estreou Sem Análise, programa exibido pelo canal de televisão por assinatura Multishow, no qual interpretava diversos personagens nas esquetes.[39] Em 2014, a atriz declinou a oportunidade de participar de uma outra telenovela e estrelou como apresentadora, juntamente com Fábio Porchat, o programa humorístico Tudo pela Audiência, também do Multishow, que consiste em uma sátira aos programas de auditório e conta com a participação de diversos convidados, entre eles Alexandre Frota, Eliana e Preta Gil.[40] No entanto, em maio daquele ano, foi anunciada como protagonista de uma telenovela de Alcides Nogueira e Mário Teixeira, à época sem título, que seria exibida no horário das 19 horas, em 2015, substituindo Alto Astral.[41] Na trama, intitulada I Love Paraisópolis, Tatá interpretaria Mari, uma moça batalhadora e romântica crescida em Paraisópolis, a maior favela de São Paulo, porém, foi substituída por Bruna Marquezine pelos diretores da Globo, que avaliaram ser mais adequado para a atriz um personagem cômico.[42] Também protagonista, a humorista viveu a personagem Pandora (Danda), irmã de criação de Marizete.[43]

Ainda em 2014, Tatá estrelou a segunda temporada de Vai Que Cola, uma vez mais no Multishow. Na sitcom, viveu a personagem Eloísa, taxista caracterizada por um penteado "Pigmalião", monocelha e pelos acima dos lábios, que, por vezes, auxilia Dona Jô (Catarina Abdala) na entrega de quentinhas, sendo descrita pela própria atriz como alguém que "não sabe se é homem, se é mulher, se é lésbica, se não o é... e entra para a turma da pensão para fazer coisas pontuais".[44][45] Sobre o seu ingresso na equipe, comentou: "Sou muito fã do elenco e às vezes me pego assistindo e admirando. O programa demanda muita energia, mas quando você faz com o público e vê o retorno da plateia, tudo vale".[46]

Atualidade
Em 2015, Tatá foi nomeada "um dos destaques da comédia nacional" por Vanessa Scalei, do periódico Zero Hora.[47] No início desse ano, estreou nos cinemas o filme Loucas Pra Casar, no qual a atriz interpretou a religiosa Maria e disputa com Malu (Ingrid Guimarães) e Lúcia (Suzana Pires) o noivo Samuel (Marcio Garcia).[48] Em maio desse mesmo ano, foi exibida a segunda temporada de Tudo pela Audiência e, no mesmo mês, a atriz foi requisitada pelo Multishow para integrar o elenco da terceira temporada de Vai Que Cola.[49] Como Tatá não pôde, em razão das gravações da telenovela I Love Paraisópoles, o canal fez questão de esperá-la para finalizar as gravações da sitcom.[50] Nesse mesmo ano, teve de recusar o convite para atuar na refilmagem do programa Escolinha do Professor Raimundo, da Rede Globo, por as gravações novamente coincidirem com as de I Love Paraisópoles, exibida entre maio e novembro de 2015. Tatá interpretaria Tati, personagem originalmente vivida por Heloísa Périssé, e foi substituída por Fernanda Souza. Sobre a sua desistência, declarou: "Fiquei muito triste por não ter feito. Eu soube da Escolinha três meses antes e eu não sabia que ia cair nas duas últimas semanas de gravação da novela. Eram os últimos capítulos e todas as cenas eram tipo monólogos (...) Preferi não fazer porque não ia dar conta, mas fiquei muito feliz com a Fernandinha, porque eu a adoro e sei que vai ser um sucesso".[51] A atriz também é muito requisita em participações em quadros de programas como Globo 50 Anos [52], Domingão do Faustão no quadro (Quadro Se Liga no Passado)[53] e no Caldeirão do Huck participando de uma pegadinha em Bruna Marquezine[54]

Com o fim de I Love Paraisópoles, a atriz pôde enfim retornar ao elenco de Vai Que Cola, participando de oito episódios.[55] Na terceira temporada da sitcom, a sua personagem, a taxista Eloísa, viveu "uma relação meio Romeu e Julieta do transporte público", como descreveu um noticiarista do Folha de S. Paulo, com o cobrador de ônibus Zélio, interpretado por Paulinho Serra.[51] Em setembro, Tatá foi confirmada como a intérprete de Fedora Abdala, em Haja Coração, telenovela exibida às 19 horas pela Rede Globo em substituição a Totalmente Demais. A trama é baseada em outra telenovela da emissora, Sassaricando, de 1987, e estreou em 31 de maio de 2016.[56] Fedora, originalmente vivida por Cristina Pereira, é uma patricinha mimada que, na obra de 2016, almeja conquistar mais seguidores nas redes sociais,[57] e foi descrita por Werneck como alguém "sem limites" e "exagerada em tudo que faz" por "acreditar que o mundo gira em torno do seu umbigo".[58] Em 2016, a atriz iniciou as gravações de TOC, um filme no qual interpretará uma mulher vítima de transtorno obsessivo-compulsivo.[59][60] No mesmo ano, iniciou-se as gravações da terceira temporada de Tudo pelo Audiência,[61] cujo primeiro episódio foi exibido no dia 9 de maio.[62] O Estranho Show de Renatinho, um programa de entrevistas com games e improvisos, estreou no Multishow em 22 de agosto; a atração é apresentada por Werneck e os integrantes de seu grupo musical, a banda Renatinho.[63] Para 2017, a atriz anunciou um musical com Ingrid Guimarães, descrevendo-o como "uma sátira sobre duas comediantes que estrelam um musical em busca de reconhecimento".[64] No mesmo ano, entregou o troféu de "Melhor Ator de Cinema" no Prêmio Quem de Televisão
Em 2 de fevereiro de 2017, estreou nos cinemas TOC: Transtornada Obsessiva Compulsiva, filme em que Werneck vive Kika K. Esse foi o seu primeiro trabalho cinematográfico como protagonista. Além de atriz, Werneck também contribuiu para a escrita do roteiro do longa-metragem.[66] O filme estreou em 300 salas e atraiu 113 531 pessoas ao cinema em seu fim de semana de estreia, tendo sido o sétimo longa-metragem mais assistido do período.[67][68] Em 10 de abril, a artista estreou o programa de entrevistas Lady Night, no Multishow.[69] O programa liderou a audiência nas emissoras por assinatura em seu primeiro dia de exibição e conquistou a terceira colocação entre os mais assistidos de todo o Brasil, com mais de um milhão de espectadores.[70][71] Além disso, a sua primeira semana registrou a maior audiência entre os programas do canal, de modo que já se cogita uma segunda temporada para o mesmo.[71] Com Lady Night, Tatá tornou-se a primeira mulher a comandar um programa de entrevistas do gênero late night em uma emissora por assinatura na televisão brasileira.[72] Além disso, Lady Night recebeu críticas positivas da imprensa. Ricardo Feltrin, colunista do site Uol, por exemplo, classificou-o como "ótimo", tendo afirmando que a atração "tem tudo para se tornar o maior sucesso do canal este ano" e elogiado os seus "quadros engraçados e criativos". Feltrin prosseguiu:

"Os quadros são engraçados, inteligentes, ágeis e fazem o programa definitivamente não dever nada a nenhum de de seus similares na TV aberta, como o The Noite (SBT) ou Programa do Porchat (Record). Pelo contrário. Porchat e Gentili poderiam ter sérios problemas caso o Lady Night fosse exibido na Globo ou em qualquer outro canal aberto no mesmo horário que o deles [...] Se o alto nível se mantiver nos próximos episódios, certamente vai concorrer a melhor programa de 2017 - seja da TV aberta ou fechada. Na verdade, com exceção de alguns palavrões ocasionais, o Lady Night poderia estar na grade da TV Globo em horário nobre. Seria sucesso na certa".[73]
Lady Night encerrou a sua primeira temporada em 12 de maio, tendo sido assistido por mais de onze milhões de pessoas.[74] Em maio de 2017, Tatá Werneck e Cauã Reymond iniciaram as gravações de um filme de comédia em que darão vida a dois policiais sem sucesso na carreira, que terão o desafio de esclarecer as ações de um assassino em série de uma pequena cidade. A obra será produzida pela Biônica Filmes e dirigida por Marcus Baldini.[75] A produção, que conta com a contribuição de Tatá para a escrita do roteiro,[76] chamar-se-á A Dupla e deverá estrear em fevereiro de 2018.[77] De acordo com Flávio Ricco, colunista do portal UOL, Tatá Werneck foi requisitada para interpretar uma princesa em Deus Salve o Rei, novela a ser exibida na faixa das 19 horas na Rede Globo a partir de 2018.[78]

Em 2019, a atriz protagoniza ao lado de Eduardo Sterblitch a série Shippados, dos roteiristas Fernanda Young e Alexandre Machado; Além de seu talk show Lady Night passa a ser exibido na TV aberta pela Rede Globo em uma parceria com o Multishow que também confirma uma quarta temporada para o segundo semestre do mesmo ano.[79][80]
