São Paulo endure longest winless run ever in Choque-Rei | OneFootball

São Paulo is experiencing the longest winless streak in the history of the Choque-Rei. After being eliminated with a 2-1 defeat to Palmeiras in the semifinal of the Campeonato Paulista, Tricolor has now gone 11 consecutive matches without beating their rival.

The last time São Paulo won the derby was on July 13, 2023, when they defeated Palmeiras 2-1 at Allianz Parque, in the second leg of the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals. Since then, there have been seven losses and four draws.

In the most recent clash, at Arena Barueri, Maurício opened the scoring for Verdão and Flaco López extended the lead. Calleri reduced the deficit with a penalty. São Paulo players also protested heavily about a possible penalty by Gustavo Gomez that was not awarded by Daiane Muniz when the score was 1-0.
