São Paulo edge closer to G6 with a boost from Ceni | OneFootball

With the conclusion of the 23rd round of the Brasileirão on Monday night (15th), 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 Bahia team, playing at home, even took the lead with a beautiful goal from 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.
