Campeonato Paulista wrap: Sao Paulo falter, Bragatino break through

Sao Paulo lost their first game of the Campeonato Paulista campaign, going down 1-0 to Ponte Preta on Saturday.

Tiago Luis was the hero for the visitors at Estadio Cicero Pompeu de Toledo, netting the winner in the 76th minute.

Conversely, Bragantino brought up its maiden win of the tournament, downing Santo Andre 2-1 at Estadio Nabi Abi Chedid.

The hosts went ahead in the 30th minute when Nego scored, and doubled their lead 10 minutes after the break via Luciano Sorriso.

Nunes pulled a goal back for Santo Andre in the 77th minute, but it was not enough to see them salvage a result.

Elsewhere, Marcelinho’s third-minute goal was all Mirassol needed to hold off Mogi Mirim 1-0 at the Estadio Romildo Vitor Gomes Ferreira.

Portugesa’s trip to Linense’s Estadio Municipal Gilberto Siqueira Lopes was a fruitful one, as they took away a 3-1 victory.

Dodo opened the scoring for the visitors in the eighth minute, but Fausto struck for Linense 11 minutes later to have the scores level at half-time.

Fabricio Silva and Marcelo Cordeiro scored in the second half to seal victory for Portugesa.
