We are the champions!!!

By: Lucas | Comments No Comments

After 11 years we’re the champions of São Paulo since 1996. We had to wait Luxemburgo come back to celebrate other Paulistão. The crowd has already knew about the title before 1 PM every palestrino scream out “Chiqueiro, é festa no chiqueiro”.
The final match was incredibly easy even Sérgio Guedes had lain about their line-up [...]

Like i said…

Like i had said in previous post Palmeiras reached the final with magnificent victory 2-0. 1st one the goalkeeper made a howler and 2nd one on the counter-attack El Mago finished São Paulo FC. Luxemburgo on 100th match as coach at Palestra Itália won for 84th time. For me Henrique was the best man on [...]

Unfortunately…

By: Lucas | Comments No Comments

Unfortunately we lost to São Paulo FC, though with 2 irregular goals scored by Adriano. The 1st one was a volleyball pass, a “manchete” like we say in Brazil, but only the referee and the lineswoman didn’t see because they weren’t well positioned. The 2nd one he was fouled on Pierre, but there is discussion. [...]

Just to complete the schedule

By: Lucas | Comments No Comments

The match against Barueri was boring for my side, of course, Barueri still had a chance to qualify but it needed for other results like defeats of Ponte Preta and Corinthians. Corinthians lost (is not a surprise) to Noroeste at Bauru but Ponte Preta got a draw at Santos.
We got 10th straight wins currently Verdão [...]

Palmeiras reach the leadership of the competition (momentarily) after to defeat Portuguesa but now we have 34 pts. and 10 victories against Guaratinguetá has 34 pts. and 11 victories.
But it was hard just at injury time 90+3′ Preá scored the goal. Alex Mineiro lost a lot of goals but he wasn’t the only one.
“With full [...]

We get the road to the finals

By: Lucas | Comments No Comments

Yeah! It’s right this sentence above. After 15 games playing unsteadily - win once, draw twice, loss once - Palmeiras with 4 wins straight and doesn’t defeat since Feb. 6th 0-3 Guaratinguetá.
Since 1997 Palmeiras doesn’t win the King Clash in State Championships last time was 1-0 goal scored by Viola.

Again we almost lose the game

By: Lucas | Comments No Comments

Again it was very difficult to win the match because of opponent that was AA Ponte Preta and in that situation occupied the 2nd place.
Gustavo gave a wrong pass to Luís Ricardo who went straight to the goal line waited Diego Cavalieri to pull out of the goal passed to back and Elias scored [...]

Ufa… They got stuck in

By: Lucas | Comments 1 Comment

I’m gonna ask you what do you think when your team is losing by 2-0 and your goalkeeper, capitain and hero is sent off the pitch ? My team will lose by 4, 5 or 6 goals.
No when you speak about Palmeiras.
