THE São Paulo faced the Velo Club this Thursday, February 13, 2025, in a match valid for the ninth round of the Paulista Championship. The confrontation took place in Mane Garrincha Stadium, in Brasília, and ended in a 3-3 draw. Tricolor was looking for victory to recover from previous results, while Velo Clube, fighting against relegation, was looking to surprise.
The game was marked by moments of high intensity. The striker Luciano stood out for São Paulo, scoring two goals and actively participating in the offensive plays. However, the tricolor defense showed flaws that allowed Velo Clube to equalize the score in injury time, with a goal from Jefferson Nem, guaranteeing a draw for the Rio Claro team.
With this result, São Paulo remains at the top of Group C of the Paulistão, now with 16 points, but lost the opportunity to secure early qualification for the next phase. The coach Luis Zubeldia faces increasing pressure due to the team's recent inconsistent performances. The Tricolor's next challenge will be the classic against Palmeiras, on Sunday, February 16, at Allianz Parque.
