Palmeiras defeated Sport 3-0 this Monday (25th) at Allianz Parque, in the 21st round of the Brasileirão. The goals for Verdão were scored by Flaco López (twice) and Gustavo Gómez.
Was not challenged by the opposing attack during the 90 minutes. Already on a yellow, he was careful not to get a third before the Derby.
It only takes a few minutes to notice his quality in crossing. Offensively, he is superior to Giay.
A calm and secure game from the captain, who was rewarded with the goal that sealed the score. He now has 41 goals for Palmeiras.
Lost possession in the first half which led to an attack from the opponent, but overall had a good game.
Started the match very involved on the left side. In the second half, his pace slowed down.
Good game, especially in the first half. Distributed good passes and didn’t have much defensive work to do.
With the imminent arrival of Andreas Pereira, he is the most threatened among the starters. A bureaucratic game from the midfielder.
Had a quiet performance until he provided a beautiful assist for Gómez’s goal in a set piece after a corner.
Missed a good chance to score with his left foot, but showed why he is establishing himself among the starters. Intellectually, a step ahead of the others with the ball.
Another great game from the team’s top scorer this season. Two goals and excellent partnership with Vitor Roque. Could have scored even more.
Deserved to have scored his own goal. Two masterful assists for Flaco to score and, unlike other games, made many correct decisions.
Came on for Felipe Anderson with the game already decided and couldn’t do much. Shows signs he will be very useful.
Like Sosa, replaced Mauricio when there wasn’t much left to do on the field. Even so, almost scored his own.
Came on in the final minutes and is unrated.
Came on in the final minutes and is unrated.
Made his debut for Palmeiras in stoppage time of the second half and is unrated.
Confirming what was said after the 4-0 win over Universitario, he seems to have found the ideal team with the attacking duo Flaco and Roque. With Andreas, it should get even better. The Derby in the next round will be a real test.
Palmeiras visits Corinthians on Sunday (31st) at Neo Quimica Arena for the Brasileirão.
