Sport fans weren’t so enthusiastic about the return duel of the Copa do Brasil round of 16. After all, on Ilha do Retiro, the Paulistas won 2-0 and forwarded the vacancy. But Leão, who had never defeated his opponent at the Morumbi, surprised and scored the 3-1, with the last goal in the 48th minute of the final stage.
Although the standings on penalties did not materialize – a 5-3 defeat – fans of the Pernambuco club embraced the team with recognition posts on social media.
Congratulations warriors, a lot is said about landing on your feet
But yes, with this posture and this football we will easily reach our goal for the year, which is to return to Serie A

The feat in the capital of São Paulo tends to be used by coach Enderson Moreira and his coaching staff as an incentive for seeking access to the Série B do Brasileiro.
THANKS LEONE MIO, THE MAJORITY DIDN’T BELIEVE IN THE VICTORY, EVEN THROUGH PENALTIES. WE WERE WARRIORS AND THAT’S WHAT I ALWAYS WANT TO SEE IN THE TEAM. ❤🖤

In addition, Sport acted without the top scorer of the season. That’s because striker Vagner Love was retained by the coaching staff after experiencing muscle discomfort during the week. Fact, incidentally, remembered by a fan.
It really hurts how the elimination went but I’ll stick with the good part here..
Even without the top scorer, the team came from behind at Morumbi and still managed to break four taboos.
In a way, it’s something to hold on to. However the season continues! https://t.co/QgYaG3vMcw

Finally, striker Juba, who squandered his charge in the series, has received criticism. He had already lost in the decision of the Copa do Nordeste, in which Ceará were crowned champions.
proud of you!!! you are giants, this team is giant! without the mane, he can go play boat now.
