之前 Before going to the Americas, São Paulo has a hard battle to play against Santos in the state championship.

托 Santos, who was defeated by São Paulo in the national championship last year, only finished in 8th place and does not qualify for the South American Liberator Cup. The state championship is their first goal this season, so they go all out.

Last year they just won their twelfth national championship trophy. This is An intractable opponent. In the game, we will focus on defense. Their Ferreira and Castillo are very threatening players, and we will pay attention to them in the game. "

Cali America coach Lozada also expressed respect for São Paulo, but he still didn't take São Paulo seriously in his words: "São Paulo is a strong team, but I don't know about them. In us At home, we will follow our usual style and will not make any special adjustments. Ricardo? I have heard of him and he has been selected for the new Brazilian national team. He is still young and has a bright future. . But Gonzales will do his job. "
