São Paulo beat Atlético Mineiro 2-0 in São Paulo on Saturday, rising from 11th to 10th in the Brasileirão and ending the visitors' seven-match unbeaten league run.

In the 33rd minute, Gustavo Santana's finish was ruled out after a VAR review for offside. Luciano then broke the deadlock from close range (67.), turning in Artur's pass.

Moments later, Iago doubled the lead with a glancing header (69.) from Lucas Ramon's cross. It was Iago's first goal for the club.

Tricolor Paulista controlled the territory and tempo. They registered 23 attempts, with five on target, and forced 16 corners.

Galo created little in reply, managing four attempts and no shots on target.

After a flurry of changes around the hour mark, Tricolor Paulista found joy down the flanks, with the introductions of Jonathan Calleri and Iago stretching the visiting back line.

The result leaves Galo eighth. Next, Tricolor Paulista visit Boca Juniors in the CONMEBOL Sudamericana. Galo travel to Santos in the CONMEBOL Sudamericana.
