São Paulo x Santo André

On September 20, São Paulo played against Santo André. São Paulo clearly had control over the game and scored in the beginning of the first halftime. After that, São Paulo started to administrate the game and clearly his goal was to win the game by 1x0 since he started to play more defensively. As a consequence for trying to maintain the score and not finish the game by scoring more goals, Santo André scored when the game was aproximately on 25 minutes of the second halftime. The game ended 1x1, a very bad result for São Paulo. He had chance to be leader of the Brazilian Cup, but the wasted his opportunity. I think São Paulo should have been offensive until the end of the game. He could have won the game easily, but he underestimated Santo André and had to pay for that.

On Wednesday, Palmeiras won the game against Cruzeiro by 2x1. São Paulo is now 3 points behind Palmeiras in the cup. São Paulo's next game is against Corinthians on September 27. It will be a difficult game. São Paulo has not won against Corinthians for quite a long time. I think São Paulo has big chances to win because it has all its main players including Hernanes (was out because of knee injury). It will be an interesting game to watch. São Paulo will win for sure as long as he plays offensively the whole game. Even though there are not many games until the cup ends, I think São Paulo still has big chances to win it for the 4th consecutive time.

SÃO PAULO!!!
