Osorio and Igor Felisberto celebrate first-team debuts | OneFootball

The match against O’Higgins, played this Thursday (7) in Chile, marked the professional debut of two “Made In Cotia” players: center-back Osorio and right-back Igor Felisberto, both 19 years old.

The young players started in the match, which ended in a 0-0 draw. The result kept Tricolor at the top of Group C in the CONMEBOL Sudamericana, with eight points.

Commenting on his debut, Osorio celebrated his journey. Born in Uberaba, Minas Gerais, the defender arrived at CFA de Cotia in 2023 from Desportivo Brasil.

“Very happy to make my professional debut. I can only thank God and my family — only we know what we went through to get here. The point is very important for our run, and we’ll keep pushing,” said the center-back.

Igor Felisberto joined Tricolor earlier, in 2018. Born in Içara, Santa Catarina, the full-back won five titles in São Paulo’s youth setup and has been called up multiple times to Brazil’s Under-20 national team.

“It’s a huge emotion. I’ve been at São Paulo since I was 11. Being able to make my debut in this giant shirt, especially in an international tournament, is truly rewarding. I’m speechless,” said the player.

“As for the match, it was a very important point earned away from home. It’s good to recognize the commitment of the whole team and keep the campaign going,” he added.

São Paulo’s next match will be the derby against Corinthians, valid for the 15th round of the Brazilian Championship. The Majestoso will take place this Sunday (10), at 6:30 p.m., at Neo Química Arena.
