RIO DE JANEIRO, July 1 (Xinhua) -- Corinthians won a third Brazilian Cup trophy on Wednesday after tying Internacional 2-2 in the return leg of the finals.

Corinthians won the first leg 2-0 at home.

The visiting Corinthians got off to a quick 2-0 lead through a Jorge Henrique header and an own goal in the first 28 minutes.

Internacional finally responded in the 70th minute, scoring their first goal of the finals. Taking advantage of a sloppy defense play, Alecsandro stole the ball and drove it past the Corinthian goalkeeper Felipe. Four minutes later, Alecsandro scored again.
