Playing at MorumBIS, Tricolor halted Cruzeiro’s momentum with a 4-1 victory on Saturday night (4).
The match was valid for the 10th round of the Brasileirão.
And Ferreirinha was the standout performer in front of 36,650 fans.
The No. 11 was given a rare chance in the starting lineup and was the main star of the show.
SPFC takes control
Cruzeiro’s greater possession in the first half proved ineffective.
Arthur Jorge’s team only seriously threatened minutes before halftime — and saw Kaio Jorge waste a good chance.
São Paulo, meanwhile, was efficient. And Roger Machado’s gamble on Artur and Ferreira together proved to be the right call.
The former won the penalty that Calleri converted to open the scoring (12').
Then he set up Ferreirinha, who doubled the lead (16').
Fightback and Ferreirinha 🔥
Still without Alan Franco and after seeing Arboleda travel to Ecuador without permission, Roger Machado then saw Sabino complain of pain and had to bring on Dória.
Dória, who was ignored by Arroyo before Christian scored for Raposa just two minutes into the second half.
Cruzeiro was the better side.
But once again, SPFC showed its efficiency.
Another involvement from Artur, Kaio Jorge almost scored an own goal, and the loose ball fell to Ferreira to celebrate again (62').
It was the first time he had scored twice in the same match since April last year.
VAR overturned the on-field decision that had shown Wendell a red card.
Arthur Jorge’s latest changes had no effect.
And Ferreirinha still had time to secure the first hat-trick of his career.
A ball won back in the defensive half and a backheel pass from Marcos Antônio found the No. 11.
He got past Kauã Moraes and benefited from a slight deflection to score a beautiful goal.
