Relive São Paulo’s most memorable blunders this season | OneFootball

The melancholic São Paulo season has come to an end, bringing with it memories of the team’s most striking mistakes throughout the year—some of which cost them their place in the Libertadores, the club’s main goal for 2025.

The most notable blunders of São Paulo’s season were committed by Luciano. Both in the first and second legs of the quarterfinals against LDU, the number 10 of the Tricolor wasted countless goal opportunities, emerging as the main villain in the team’s elimination from the continental tournament.

In the first leg against LDU, where São Paulo was defeated 2-0 in Ecuador, Luciano had good chances to find the back of the net. Proof of this is that the Tricolor had more shots than the home team (11 to 7), but even so, left the field with a loss.

In the return leg, with Morumbis packed, São Paulo’s dominance was even greater. The home side had nine shots on goal compared to just one from the Ecuadorians, who managed to convert their only chance to win 1-0 and secure their spot in the Libertadores.

In the Copa do Brasil, the villain was Jandrei. São Paulo’s reserve goalkeeper, according to many, failed in Athletico-PR’s goal in the return match in Curitiba, letting in a ball that much of the fans considered saveable, in addition to missing a penalty kick.

Young, another reserve goalkeeper for São Paulo, also had a memorable blunder. In the match against Sport, at Ilha do Retiro, for the Brazilian Championship, the youngster from Cotia tried to play the ball out but ended up giving it straight to Lucas Lima, who didn’t waste the good opportunity to score, putting Leão ahead. Later, in the dying moments of the game, the Tricolor managed to secure a draw.
