Palmeiras visited São Paulo in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil and ended up being defeated in a bad performance at Morumbi
O palm trees visited the Sao Paulo on the night of this Thursday, 23, in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. In an unrecognizable performance by the Abel Ferreira, Tricolor paulista was superior and came out with the victory. Even being defeated in the first game, Gustavo Scarpa didn’t throw in the towel and project the game back.
Before that, the teams faced each other this Monday, 20, for the Brasileirão, and Palmeiras won by 2 to 1 with two goals scored in six minutes and already in the extra time of the second half. Seeking another triumph at the rival’s home, Verdão did not play well and ended up losing by 1 to 0. Commenting on the match, Gustavo Scarpa regretted the team’s defeat, but recalled that the confrontation is not over yet.
CHANNEL – ATHLETISTIC
“The game was very similar to the one on Monday, they started better, their first half was more intense. In the second we ended up having more personality, we put the ball on the ground more, we took more risks. Unlike Monday, we were not effective and efficient in the submissions. Patience, we have one more game. It is a reversible result. We need to do our best, but nothing is lost“, said.
After contributing two assists on Monday, the midfielder found it very difficult to participate in the match, as he was being individually marked by Gabriel Neves. With the lack of creation, Palmeiras only submitted six times and none of them was on target.
Commenting on the return game, Scarpa showed confidence in the comeback and in support of the Alviverde fans, saying: “In the same way that the fans here positively influence the São Paulo team, without a doubt that at Allianz our fans favor our game a lot. That we make it prevail“.
