Against a Flamengo team that seemed to have lost at home, in their home ground, everything pointed to São Paulo becoming champions. Izabella Giannolla, editor (São Paulo champion) - Considering the mountain football presented by Flamengo and the general dominance of São Paulo, everything points to Tricolor as champion. If Flamengo didn't find the basics at home and São Paulo saw their team lose strength on the field, it was because of a blunder that changed something that was written in Tricolor fashion. São Paulo arrived well in the team, supported by the fans and without a superb coach. Another story. + Calleri makes the decision and São Paulo beats Flamengo in the first match of the Copa do Brasil final Gabriel Teles, editor (São Paulo champion) - São Paulo has a knife and cheese in hand to take victory. I'm sure Tricolor will put an end to the 'joke' and win an unprecedented victory. As the second match will be at Morumbi, I believe the result is practically certain.

With an advantage in the first game and support from the fans, Tricolor had the knife and cheese to achieve an unprecedented victory. Caio Ribeiro, editor (São Paulo champion) - If São Paulo were already favorites before the first match, with their historic success at Maracanã, they are now more favored than ever. Furthermore, the result opens up the depths that exist between the careers of Dorival and Sampaoli. São Paulo was consistent and precise in its approach during the match, while Flamengo was a slow team. Thus, facing a Morumbi team that was sure of qualifying, São Paulo was increasingly closer to lifting the only championship it didn't have. + VIDEO: See the best moments of São Paulo's victory over Flamengo in the Copa do Brasil final Alexandre Guariglia, journalist (São Paulo champion) - I'm not surprised by the result and my opinion on who will win the title remains unchanged. On one side there is a team, which is São Paulo, on the other side there are many players, which is Flamengo. If Tricolor had been more aggressive in the first half, they would have left the Maracanã with both hands on the cup. Now, at Morumbi, the hope is to return to playing in unity against chaos, which, of course, is an unprecedented victory for the São Paulo team. Only a drastic improvement by the red-blue team can change the situation. Flamengo celebrated the disappointed fans in the stands. (Photo: Thiago Ribeiro/Agif/Gazeta Press) Follow Lance!
