Adriano celebrates against Corinthians
"O campeão voltou" or ‘the champions are back" was the cry coming from the 28,000 or so who
were in the estádio Morumbi to see São Paulo beat an in-form Goiás 3-1.
For most of this season, São Paulo have languished in the wrong half of the table.
Champions São Paulo pick up another win
With the season at the halfway stage, just four points separate the top four teams in the
Brasileiro.
Palmeiras were held at home 1-1 by a plucky Botafogo. André Lima struck first for the away
team. Danilo got the equalizer for the league leaders.
Diego Souza sports Palmeiras' new third kit
Palmeiras remained top after a 2-1 win over title rivals Internacional in the Palestra Itália.
Danny Moraes was adjudged to have stopped Diego Souza inside the box.
Obina converted the penalty to bring his tally to nine in the competition.
