NAVADENEWS - São Paulo eliminated Palmeiras on penalties and advanced to the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil.- São Paulo beat Palmeiras on penalties and confirmed, tonight (14), qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil. Tricolor lost 2-1 in normal time, at Allianz Parque, and the decision had to be on penalties due to a 1-0 win in the first leg. In that collection, Rogério Ceni's side took a 4-3 lead. Abel Ferreira's side started the game in great fashion by going 2 to 0, with just 12 minutes left, with goals from Piquerez and Raphael Veiga. Tricolor compared the roles in the second half, seeing Veiga squander a spot-kick and, soon after, use the penalty in his favour.
The duel continued into a penalty shoot-out and the first
two hitters ran aground: Veiga, again, and Luciano, who hit him in time. On the
fifth penalty, Wesley finished on Jandrei, while Igor Gomes converted and
classified the Tricolor. The best: Marcos Rocha It overturned all the
strategies that Rogério Ceni had prepared for the decision. As a third-back on
the right, with Gustavo Scarpa playing right-back in line 5, Marcos Rocha has the
ability to protect Patrick individually – signaled so well that he left at
halftime. The worst: Patrick The Scorer managed São Paulo's victory in the
early leg.
Palmeiras' chronology begins at an enormous speed, startled
by the crowd. In the 9th minute, he compared the roles: Gabriel Veron reached
the bottom and crossed low into the center of the box, where Piquerez looked
alone and struck hard to open the scoring.
3 minutes later, in the 12th minute of the first half,
Patrick forgot a pass in midfield and Palmeiras went fast with Dudu. The 7
shirt went forward, sharing with the defense and creating Raphael Veiga, free
and in the zone. Verdão's most successful scorer took it with class from
Jandrei and made it 0. São Paulo returned with Luciano taking over Patrick and
balancing the game. However, it was Palmeiras who had the chance to end the
match with a penalty that was caught by VAR in the hands of Calleri inside the
box. In that attack, Raphael Veiga hit Jandrei's goal. 3 minutes after that,
Vuaden returned to VAR, this time to score a success.
Organized to offend São Paulo Just before the game started,
while the São Paulo players were warming up on the pitch, some of the Palmeiras
fans sang a prejudice against the Tricolor players "Car squad..., gay places
are in the closet". Only the organized alviverde fans sang, which lasted
less than a minute.
