Palmeiras hit record win in Copinha history | OneFootball

The Palmeiras Under-20 team made history this Thursday (8th) in the São Paulo Junior Football Cup. The team defeated Batalhão-TO 9-0 and achieved their biggest win ever in the history of the Copinha – matching their triumph from 2025. Eduardo scored four times, Sorriso three times, and Victor Gabriel and Coutinho also found the net for Verdão.

The result matches the score achieved in 2025, with a 9-0 victory over Náutico-RR in the first round of the group stage, also in Barueri – the goals were scored by Luighi (twice), Riquelme Fillipi, Benedetti, Figueiredo, Thalys (twice), Agner, and Sorriso.

Four players were on the field for both 9-0 victories: defender Robson, full-back Arthur, midfielder Coutinho, and forward Sorriso. Coutinho and Arthur were the only starters in both matches, while Sorriso was the only one to score in both games.

In 2025, the 9-0 result, now matched in 2026, became the biggest win in Palmeiras' history in the Copinha, surpassing the 8-0 over Flamengo-SP in 1999. In 2024, the Crias da Academia had scored 7-0 against Queimadense, which was the biggest goal margin of this century until then.

What now?

Palmeiras has six points from two matches, leading Group 27 with 13 goals scored and two conceded. The team coached by Lucas Andrade faces Remo in the last round of the group stage, this Sunday (11th), at 11 a.m. (Brasília time), at Arena Crefisa Barueri.

The Crias da Academia are aiming for their third Copinha title. In 2022, Verdão won the tournament for the first time by thrashing Santos 4-0 in the final at Allianz Parque, with goals from Endrick, Giovani, and Gabriel Silva (twice). The following year, they claimed back-to-back titles with a 2-1 victory over América-MG in the final at Canindé, with goals from Ruan Ribeiro and Patrick.
