Palmeiras will compete in their 12th semifinal followed by the state – it is the only club that has reached the penultimate phase of the competition in the 11 most recent editions – and will have to wait to know who will be your rival.

While Paulinho does not recover from surgery on his right leg he went to in December and Vitor Roque, the most expensive signing of Brazilian football, does not arrive in São Paulo, it is Stephen who decides. His talented left leg facilitated a game that could be difficult and nervous. It was also not thanks to the great collective performance of Abel Ferreira’s team, perhaps his best in the year, one night he dominated and authorized the team that had made the second best state campaign in the group stage.
Two beautiful conclusions of the 17 -year -old Palmeirense jewel, both in the first half, found the nets and left Palmeiras quiet at the 1st of May. In the first, at 15, he hit violent kick near the goalkeeper’s angle. In the second, in additions, he sought someone to tabulate on the right end. As he did not find, he decided to follow alone until he finished with a curve in the right corner and see the ball enter the only possible space.
The almost resolved game, the impotence of São Bernardo and the organization of Palmeiras allowed visitors, carefree, to administer the advantage created in the first half without problem. Always triggered at the right end, Stephen wanted to go home with three goals and continued his journey of inspiration. He stopped at goalkeeper Alex Alves in an attempt and then even shook the net, but, as it was prevented, the bid was annulled.
The boy did not do the third, but who needed even more than him did. The contested Flaco López, who now has the shadow of star Vitor Roque, has defined the scoring with one of the easiest heads of his career. Alex Alves failed and Argentine had no more than sliding head to the network.
