São Paulo had a scare, but came from behind to defeat Primavera last Saturday at Morumbis, and ended the day in the qualifying zone for the next phase of the Campeonato Paulista. Forward Lucas Moura had a decisive performance and led the Tricolor on the field.
Besides scoring a goal, number 7 also distributed four key passes and had 56 actions with the ball. However, he was not the only one to find the net. Forward Calleri came on in the second half and scored the winning goal from a penalty kick.
Another game-changer was Luciano. Number 10 took the field after the break and altered the dynamics of the attack. He was the one who earned the penalty converted by Calleri. Right-back Lucas Ramon, who debuted with an assist, and goalkeeper Rafael, with important saves, also performed well.
The negative highlight was the defensive line. Alan Franco did not compromise but was insecure on the field. Meanwhile, Ferraresi and Dória disappointed. The former had the misfortune of deflecting Poveda's shot into Primavera's goal, while the latter was substituted after the first half.

São Paulo now occupies the eighth place in the standings, with ten points. However, Hernán Crespo's team can still be overtaken by Mirassol, who faces Capivariano this Sunday. If the Lion stumbles, the Tricolor will enter the final round relying only on themselves to advance to the quarter-finals of the State Championship.
