Everything happened: Palmeiras beat Corinthians in a fiery Derby 📹

There was a slip during a penalty kick, great saves, and a big chance wasted.

It was up to Palmeiras to come out on top in a heated Derby held at the Neo Química Arena on Sunday night (8).

Flaco López secured the 1-0 victory over Corinthians in front of 45,660 attendees.

The match was part of the seventh round of the Paulistão classification phase.

This win eased the bad streak Palmeiras had against their biggest rival and secured their spot in the knockout stage.

Could it have changed the course of the game?

In an attempt by Dorival Júnior’s team from above, Raphael Claus awarded a penalty on Carlos Miguel against Gustavo Henrique.

A chance for Memphis to open the score.

But the supporting foot of the number 10 literally let him down.

Before the kick, Andreas Pereira was caught repeatedly stepping over the penalty mark.

Which may have influenced Memphis’s slip.

Corinthians had more ball possession and game volume in the first half.

But the only accurate shot came from Palmeiras, with Vitor Roque being the most aggressive player.

Carlos Miguel as the protagonist

Palmeiras even returned better after the break.

But Corinthians started to accumulate chances. However, they couldn’t get past Carlos Miguel, who made two great saves.

The first big chance for Palmeiras came at 77′, when Luighi stole the ball from Matheuzinho, went face to face with Hugo Souza, but saw the defender recover.

Flaco’s goal and scuffle

The competitive Palmeiras succeeded at 84′, when Flaco López picked up the rebound from Hugo Souza after Mauricio’s shot.

The celebration from the number 42 included a kick to the corner flag and a celebration in front of the rival fans – the only ones present in Itaquera.

Some Corinthians substitutes didn’t like it, leading to shoves among more players from both teams afterward.

The final minutes saw an unsuccessful attempt by Corinthians.

Palmeiras controlled the rival’s momentum and celebrated away from home.
