For the third consecutive year, Palms is the best team in the group stage of Libertadores Cup. This Wednesday (21), the team secured this condition by beating Tigre 5-0, at Allianz Parque, in the final round of its key, the B, also ending a series of four defeats in the season.
Palmeiras had a practically perfect campaign in their group, with 16 points and 14 goals in balance. And the performance guarantees him the advantage of the field command in the second leg of the Libertadores knockout until the semifinals, being that the first rival, the eighth, will be known on Friday, through a draw.
To triumph on Wednesday night, Palmeiras took advantage of the weakness of Tigre, the worst team in the Libertadores group stage, with only one point added and a negative balance of 14 goals. And he still had a good collective performance in the final stage to define the win. Thus, he achieved the first triumph under the command of Andrey Lopes, Cebola, who provisionally assumed command of the team, after the departure of Vanderlei Luxembourg and had lost in his interim debut, for Fortaleza.
It is possible that Cebola will manage Palmeiras for some time, especially after Miguel Ángel Ramírez’s refusal to take over the team. And the next game with him on the bench will be on Sunday, away from home, against Atlético Goianiense, for Brasileirão.
THE GAME – Cebolla put Palmeiras with some novelties on the field, with Gabriel Menino on the right side and Danilo in the center of the field, in the place of Patick de Paula. In the offensive sector, he bet on Wesley and Gabriel Veron, composing a trio of attackers with Luiz Adriano. However, the changes did not improve the team’s recent level of performance. And since Tigre showed no intensity in the attack, the first half was sleepy.
The exception was the first minutes, when the Argentine team sought to overtake the mark and caused Viña’s mistakes, which yielded a card for him and a goal opportunity for the Argentine team. And that was it, because Tigre did little and Palmeiras was slow at the start of the game, disorganized and uncreative, save for rare attacks from Gabriel Veron and Wesley on the ends, as well as some free throw attempts.
Thus, only a movement initiated by a Weverton kick to search for Wesley changed this scenario. In the 34th minute, he took off on the left after winning a dispute from above and crossed low. The ball was still deflected in the marking before being left with Raphael Veiga, free, stuck to make the 1 to 0, reaching his sixth goal in 2020.
Even with an advantage, Palmeiras returned more attentive to the second half, with greater proximity between the attack players. And it was enough to quickly define his victory. In a new play started by a long shot from Weverton, Gabriel Menino suffered a penalty, but Zenobio saved the penalty from Luiz Adriano. But in the corner, at 8 minutes, Gustavo Gómez headed firmly to make it 2-0.
The goal returned the game to lethargy, changed so that Palmeiras scored for the third time, after Luiz Adriano disputed the ball at the entrance of the area, Wesley had the leftovers and gave a touch to Zé Rafael to finish low, at 20 minutes, expanding the score. It was easy, so much so that even playing at a slow pace, Palmeiras soon made another, also after recovering energy after substitutions. This time, Danilo pitched Ron, who crossed for Gabriel Veron, alone, to make it 4-0 at 29.
Palmeiras remained in the attack field until the end and, taking advantage of Tigre’s fatigue, scored again, with Ron, at the plate, completing Viña’s center: 5-0, in minute 35, for the best team of the group stage. of the Libertadores.
