This Saturday, Palmeiras faces São Paulo in a derby for the Campeonato Paulista, at 6:30 PM (Brasília time), at Arena Barueri. Paraguayan player Ramón Sosa spoke about the match and emphasized that the team will do whatever it takes to win: “we will leave everything on the field.”

The forward downplayed the defeat to Novorizontino in the last round and stated that the focus is now entirely on the Choque-Rei.

“The previous match (against Novorizontino) was tough, but that’s football and it can happen. Now we are already thinking about the derby against São Paulo and we know it will be a very important game. We are preparing well and we will leave everything on the field to go for the win,” he declared.

Special match

Sosa also recalled the starring role he played in the last meeting between the teams, when he scored the decisive goal in the 3-2 comeback victory at Morumbi, in the second round of the 2025 Brazilian Championship — one of his most memorable moments since joining the club.

“The last match against São Paulo that we won was very special for me. It was my first derby against São Paulo and I was very happy. Now we will face them again and we are preparing to win once more,” he added.

New arrival

Sosa was signed from Nottingham Forest, England, in July 2025. Since then, he has played 31 matches for Verdão and contributed to eight goals. He scored four goals and provided four assists. In the current season, he has played two games and contributed one assist.
