In the first leg of the CONMEBOL Sudamericana quarterfinals, Corinthians emerged victorious with a 1-0 win over Estudiantes. 

The visiting Estudiantes side faced a tough challenge in Brazil as Gil's goal at the 17th-minute mark, following a corner from the right, secured the crucial victory for the home team. 

The win in front of their home crowd gives Corinthians a significant advantage in the series. Estudiantes now aim to overturn this result in the second-leg match set to take place in La Plata.
