    Full Time. Mental first half but it calmed down a bit in the second with some decent football at times.

    All of them.
    Did not see this game. I started watching Brazilian football about 3 years ago and have watched Sao Paulo on many occasions. The games are brutal at times but end to end stuff with skill. Never dull games. Do Sao Paulo still have a midfielder called Hernanes? He looked amazing about 2 years ago. I honestly thought he could walk into any teams midfield the way he played.

    Hernanes plays for Lazio now

    South American football is amazing, more so because of the fights and shocking challenges but also they play some brilliant football. COPA America this year aswell, cant wait for it
