Luciano converts early penalty as São Paulo end 10-match league drought

São Paulo beat RB Bragantino 2-1 at MorumBIS to end a 10-match Brasileirão winless run.

After a VAR review had overturned an earlier award, Luciano converted from the spot in the 14th minute to put the hosts ahead. Gustavo Santana then doubled the lead in the fourth minute of first half stoppage time, sweeping in after a corner.

Substitute Fernando pulled one back for the visitors from close range (90.) after Henry Mosquera's pass. VAR confirmed the goal.

Tricolor Paulista registered 16 attempts, with seven on target. Braga had 61.8% possession but managed only eight attempts, as Tiago Volpi made five saves to keep them in contention.

Tricolor Paulista are 11th on 30 points and host Atlético Mineiro next. Braga remain eighth on 35 points and host Bahia next.
