The match marked the debut of Palmeiras' new uniform, which pays homage to the 60th anniversary of the inauguration of the Mineirão, when they represented the Brazilian national team in a 3-0 friendly win over Uruguay.

And, curiously, Argentine Flaco López and Paraguayan Gustavo Gómez were the top scorers on the night when "Palmeiras played as Brazil".

⚽ The game

With the ball rolling, the technical difference - reflected in the teams' position in the standings - became evident.

Palmeiras had no difficulty building the win, which could have been even greater, especially considering the chances missed in the first half.

In fact, the goal that opened the scoring came before the 15-minute mark, when Vitor Roque gave a beautiful assist with a through ball, and Flaco López scored with a first-time shot.

In the final stage, two "lightning-fast" goals gave the tranquility expected by the alviverde fans.

At 11 minutes, Flaco López took advantage of a cross from the right and won the high ball to head and extend the lead.

Sport's goalkeeper even made the save, but the ball had already crossed the line.
