However, early in the match, a power outage in one of the stadium's lighting towers halted the game for seven minutes until the ball was back in play.
Coach Luis Zubeldia rotated the squad, giving the starters a rest after the win at Majestos, and Lusa took advantage.
The Tricolor defense faltered, and Renan Peixoto (13') capitalized on the opportunity to open the scoring.

In the second half, the match lost rhythm, and the best chance came from Ferreirinha's (21') shot that hit the post.
However, in stoppage time, Ryan Francisco (46') received a great pass at the edge of the box, advanced, and finished well to secure Sao Paulo's comeback.

Wolves have added further quality to the senior team after losing key names this summer, with the club confirming a completed deal for AZ and Norway left-back David Møller Wolfe.

A defensive stalwart at AFAS Stadion across two seasons in the Eredivisie, making 92 appearances for De Kaasboeren across all competitions and helping the club remain a top-five presence on the domestic front. The twelve-time capped defender will link up with compatriot Jørgen Strand Larsen, who joined the club on a full deal from Celta de Vigo earlier in the summer window. 📸 Alex Bierens de Haan - 2025 Getty Images

📸 Still in hospital, Bayern star sends message to the fans
Somewhat surprisingly, the news came from Munich on Saturday morning: Aleksandar Pavlovic had injured himself in training yesterday and will be out for the time being. He had suffered a fracture of the orbit and had already undergone surgery. The Bayern star has now reported from the hospital himself. "I've already survived the operation, everything's not so bad! I'll be back soon! Thanks for all your get-well wishes! Your Aleks", he wrote on his Instagram profile and posted a photo from his hospital bed. The Bavarians did not provide any information on the duration of his absence. According to 'Sky', among others, the midfielder will be out for three to four weeks. This means he could also miss the German national team's World Cup qualifying matches in early September. For the 21-year-old, it's particularly bitter that he's being slowed down again by an injury. After a collarbone fracture in the first half of the season, he was out for a long time in the second half due to Pfeiffer's glandular fever. He had also missed the 2024 European Championship due to injury. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇩🇪 here. 📸 Kevin C.

Three touching words from Victor Osimhen to Napoli after signing with Galatasaray
Big gratitude from Nigerian to southern Italian city. Sercan Ozkurnazli - Getty Images The Nigerian striker, who enjoyed a distinguished career at the Estadio Diego Armando Maradona, will certainly never forget those memorable nights, directly contributing to the 2022-23 Scudetto, and then bringing joy to the city alongside the distinguished Georgian Khvicha Kvarastikhela, who is currently shining with Paris Saint-Germain. The Italian club announced the transfer of Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen to Galatasaray on a permanent transfer after a season on loan in Turkey with the same team. It seems that he chose the Turkish giants because he was accustomed to the shelter there in Istanbul and liked the financial offer and everything was suitable for him. It is worth noting that the Nigerian striker received great interest from Saudi clubs, led by Al-Hilal, and English clubs such as Chelsea and Manchester United in particular. What is the message submitted by the Nigerian to the Italian club? The message from the Super Eagle was very formal and consisted of only three words in the Italian language spoken by the people of the city, saying: "Grazie per tutto" which in English means "thank you for everything" expressing the immense gratitude he has for the team's fans and the club in general. Osimhen played 133 matches with the Italian team, scoring 76 goals and 18 assists.
