Sao Paulo passed over Fluminense with absolute authority, and 3-1, entitled to scare by 1-2, was far from revealing the difference of tricolor performances, even with the discount of a penalty lost by Luciano and defended by Fabio.
The first half can be called the game of one team, such the imposition of the Paulistas, with total and quiet dominance on the rooms placed at the Club World Cup, a pride that turns into drama for the cariocas, victims of the fourth loss followed in the Brazilian Championship.
It is noticeable the change operated by Argentine Hernán Crespo, who brought standard and security to Sao Paulo, quite different from the insecure and willful team of the management of the Argentine Luis Zubeldía.
The coach who behaved as a crowd leader came out and came in what behaves as a conductor.
Resigned to the absence of the most expensive and renowned cast players, Lucas Moura and Oscar, Crespo shows how with organization and patience it is possible to prevail the collective game in a group without stars.
The first half ended only with Arboleda’s goal because there was a lost penalty and second with two goals, Ferreirinha and Tapia, one, because Samuel Xavier found an unlikely goal so far in the only finish between the São Paulo beams, already 32 minutes, and before more than 42,000 fans in the pleasant afternoon of the São Paulo winter.
Sao Paulo will not fight for the title, Crespo is the first to know, but arms themselves to campaign decent.
Who is in the fight for the title and gave colossal silly in front of more than 50 thousand fans, in Mineirão, was Cruzeiro.
Of those games to burn the language of experts.
In the lead of the championship, Cruzeiro lost for the first time as principal and gave the first victory as a visitor, and turned to Ceará, 2-1.
He won a goal from goalkeeper Bruno, just after 3 minutes, to scorer Kaio Jorge, stacked a lot of opportunities to expand, suffered a draw in the first half and the turn in the second, both goals of Paraguayan Galeano.
For those who are intended to prevent Flamengo and Palmeiras from competing for the title, the Cruzeirense defeat sounds like those unforgivable and right at the end of the first round marathon.
Most likely Flamengo will have taken the lead by winning Atletico-MG in the game of 20:30, after two points ahead and with one less game against the Sport Lantern, without any victory, although the game is on Retiro Island, where Pernambucans always like to shake because of the 1987 title-what the world of football knows how to have been Flamengo and Zé Regiginhas settled on Sport.
Palmeiras remains firm in their tune, with two games less than the cruise and just two points behind.
He passed the Grêmio without further difficulties and after 20 minutes that they enjoyed seeing, although he was accommodated with the advantage of 1-0, goal of Facundo Torres in the second minute of the game at Casa Verde, with 37,000 people.
Verder seems that rich uncle and hard bread: he knows it can give the nephews better, but prefers not to get used to them badly.
