The final decisive game

With 2 games left for the Brazilian Cup to end, São Paulo needs to beat Goiás. São Paulo has only 1 point of advantage over Flamengo who will play against Corinthians. Obviously, Corinthians will let Flamengo win because Corinthians considers São Paulo as a rival and there are many players that are "flamenguistas" playing in Corinthians.

Even though Flamengo might receive a "little" help from Corinthians, I believe that São Paulo will beat Goiás. If São Paulo beats Goiás and later Sport, we will be "heptacampeão" and will be a team who won the Brazilian Cup 4 times in a row.

Finally leader!!! Justice Made!

With the loss of Palmeiras to Fluminense, São Paulo has now assumed 1st place in the Brazilian Cup. With an incredible tie where São Paulo managed to have 3 players expelled from the game, he is now leader with 59 points on the competition. The game against Grêmio was harder than I expected. Grêmio made 1x0 on the 1st half and I thought the game was lost because Grêmio was playing on his stadium and had the advantage, but after a few minutes Dagoberto tied the game for São Paulo. The game continued to be very equal until the second half where São Paulo started losing his players. Borges, Dagoberto, and Jean all received red card with about 10 minutes left for the game to end. After that incident, it was basically offense against defense. São Paulo had no attack players, so he only defended. Fortunately, he was able to maintain the result.

On November 8, 2009 Palmeiras played Fluminense. Palmeiras had the obligation to win or either tie to maintain the 1st position on the cup. Fluminense had to win to still have chances to be able to leave the last positions (which would make him go to the 2nd division). It was a very interesting game, where Fluminense won by 1x0.

I thank Fluminense for helping São Paulo become leader!
