The classic over the weekend was marked by controversy
The classic between Sao Paulo and Palmeiras, last Sunday (3), was full of controversies off the pitch. Tricolor did not free up the press room for coach Abel Ferreira, described as a “shitty Portuguese” by a coach of the home team. For journalist Osvaldo Pascoal the tension between the clubs is due to the transfer of Caio Paulista.
– He has a first and last name: Caio Paulista. He left Sao Paulo and went to play for Palmeiras. And that friendship between the president of Palmeiras and the president of San Paolo collapsed. That’s the reason. The rest is all background. Julio Casares still doesn’t accept that Caio Paulista has left to play for Palmeiras – commented Pascoal, on “ESPN”.
In the last stretch of 2023, Caio Paulista, Copa do Brasil champion with Sao Paulo, signed with Palmeiras. The player was heavily criticized by fans for the exchange. On the pitch the teams drew 2-2 at Morumbi, in a duel that also had refereeing controversies. In the Brazilian Super Cup, Sao Paulo won on penalties.
