Palmeiras concede early goal to Mirassol for second time this year | OneFootball

In the 2-1 defeat to Mirassol last Sunday, Palmeiras conceded a lightning goal in the first minute of play, with a shot from Gabriel. This was the second time Verdão conceded a goal within a minute this season, something that hadn't happened in five months.

The last time Alviverde conceded a goal this early was against Cruzeiro, on the first day of July. On that occasion, Palmeiras conceded a goal from Kaio Jorge right at the start of the match, and shortly after, at four minutes, the forward scored the second.

The match ended 2-1 for the Minas Gerais team, as Allan scored to narrow the gap at the end of the second half.

The goal conceded against Mirassol reflects a poor start for Palmeiras, which had only 27% possession and completed just 13 passes in the first 10 minutes of the match. For comparison, by this point in the game, the team from the São Paulo countryside had already completed 48 passes.

The defeat also cost Verdão the advantage they had over Flamengo in the lead of the Brazilian Championship. Currently, both have 68 points, but the São Paulo team leads due to a superior number of victories.
