São Paulo close in on G6 with Ceni’s help, stay put in table | OneFootball

With the end of the 23rd round of the Brasileirão on Monday night (15), São Paulo found itself closer to the elite group of the national championship, after a 1-0 victory over Botafogo at Morumbi.

The Tricolor caught up with their Rio rival in the standings, both with 35 points, but remained in 7th place, behind Botafogo only due to tiebreaker criteria.

Another opponent that didn’t pull away in the table and has just 1 point more than São Paulo is Bahia, coached by Rogério Ceni, who ended up giving a little help to his former club where he shone as a goalkeeper.

The Bahian team, playing at home, even took the lead with a beautiful goal by Jean Lucas. However, in the second half, they suffered a comeback by Cruzeiro and lost 2-1, with goals from Sinisterra and Gabigol. Thus, they remain in 5th place in the standings.
