São Paulo
Palmeiras
Palmeiras secured a crucial 1-0 victory over São Paulo in this heated derby, with Jhon Arias' early sixth-minute thunderbolt from outside the box proving to be the decisive moment. The match quickly descended into chaos with referee having to show 11 yellow cards and a red card to Palmeiras manager Abel Ferreira, who was dismissed after receiving two yellows for persistent arguing with officials. São Paulo pushed desperately for an equalizer in the second half, making multiple substitutions including bringing on Felipe Anderson and Vitor Roque, but Palmeiras defended resolutely to claim three vital points in what appears to be a tight title race.
