After being eliminated by Botafogo in the quarter-finals of the Libertadores, it was expected that coach Luis Zubeldía would make significant changes to his team’s formation. However, what was observed was the same São Paulo that demonstrated it could effectively turn the page in this final stretch of the season.
At the beginning of the match, there were the usual individual errors that could have led to dangerous chances for Corinthians. However, the rival failed to capitalize on those opportunities, and the first half was below what both teams are capable of showing.
In the second half, the team led by Ramón Díaz fell apart on the field after the expulsions of Fágner and André Ramalho, leaving an easy path for São Paulo to secure the victory. With plenty of space, the rout didn’t happen only due to small details.
With this result, São Paulo moves to 5th place with 47 points, just one point behind 4th place Flamengo—the top four teams secure direct qualification for next year’s Libertadores. Meanwhile, Corinthians suffers its 12th defeat in the Brasileirão and remains in the relegation zone, tied on points with Vitória, the first team outside the Z4.
