São Paulo secured direct qualification for the Copa Sudamericana round of 16 by beating Boston River 2-0 at the Morumbi on Tuesday night (26). And it added a little more to its coffers with the prize money earned.

Just for taking part in this group stage, Tricolor receives US$300,000 (R$1.5 million at the exchange rate of the day). Each win at this stage brings another US$125,000. Since it had three victories, it earns another US$375,000 (R$1.89 million).

And to wrap up this Sudamericana group stage, qualification for the round of 16 guarantees another US$600,000 (R$3 million) for Tricolor’s battered coffers at the Morumbi.

Thus, after this first phase for São Paulo, in which it finished 1st in Group C with 12 points, the club brought in around R$6.4 million. There were three wins and three draws, with only one goal conceded in this opening campaign.
