How do you rate São Paulo's current season? Vote in the poll! | OneFootball

São Paulo has been dealing with a season of ups and downs. The team, which was recently eliminated from the Copa Libertadores, showcased good moments but struggled to meet the high expectations of the fans.

Still under the command of Luis Zubeldía, the Tricolor fell in the semifinals of the Campeonato Paulista to Palmeiras, losing 1-0 due to a penalty goal by Raphael Veiga after a questionable foul by Arboleda on Vitor Roque inside the area.

In the Copa do Brasil, São Paulo was eliminated by Athletico-PR in the quarterfinals. The Tricolor even won the first leg at Morumbis, 2-1, but had a player sent off just four minutes into the return match, lost 1-0, and fared poorly in the penalty shootout, missing all their shots.

The most recent setback was in the Libertadores. With the second-best campaign in the first phase, behind only Palmeiras, São Paulo excited its fans in the continental tournament but struggled against LDU, losing both the first leg in Ecuador, 2-0, and the return leg at Morumbis, 1-0.

In the Brazilian Championship, São Paulo has been performing more consistently and has remained among the top teams in the competition since the arrival of coach Hernán Crespo, who was hired to save the team from the relegation risk that existed at the time. Now, the mission for this final stretch of the year is to secure qualification for the next Libertadores.

But, after all, how do you evaluate São Paulo's season?
