Arias scores, Palmeiras extend São Paulo’s drought, go top

Palmeiras continued their unbeaten run against Sao Paulo.

Thanks to Arias’ goal, Alviverde takes the lead in the Choque-Rei match of MorumBIS this Saturday (21st).

This 1-0 victory is valid for the eighth round of the 2025 World Cup in Brazil and also gave Vido the lead.

SPFC is currently unbeaten in 12 consecutive games, with 8 wins and 4 draws.

During this period, the Tricolor’s only celebration was winning the 2024 Super Cup via penalty shootout.

Arias is different

Only six minutes into the game, Palmeiras took the lead.

The Tricolor defense was drawn to the right wing and Flacco passed to Jon Arias, who was lethal against a defense that was not ideally positioned.

Sao Paulo had more of the ball in the first half. But they failed to create any quality chances before the break.

The best attempt occurred in the 40th minute after Kaleri stole the ball.

Abel’s team posed a greater danger.

Sao Paulo didn’t take off

Sao Paulo continued to have more possession.

But couldn’t create any real scoring chances. For example, they lack inspiration.

Palmeiras, on the other hand, lost the power to hold the ball.

Roger Machado is committed to improving the quality of the offense.

And without success. The tricolor flag falls short in terms of creation.

Abel’s side – who would have Daronko sent off – celebrated at their opponents’ home ground after a good start to the game.
