It wasn't easy. Veiga left the game with a possible injury. And Richard Ríos was in the fans' crosshairs.
But Palmeiras came out on top against Cerro Porteño this Wednesday (9), at Allianz.
Thanks to a goal from Ríos himself, Verdão won 1 x 0.
They continue 100% in Group G of the Libertadores. And now, in sole leadership.Exchange, tension, and relief... with a scolding!
Veiga left the game just 12 minutes in with a possible injury to his left shoulder.
Felipe Anderson was called upon, but little changed immediately.
Palmeiras took a while to get a well-positioned rival involved in their field. And who was trying to surprise.
The higher technical quality of the alviverde would show, starting with the beautiful launch by Murilo.
It was up to Ríos to convert and ask for silence from the fans (41') - and to be targeted by them at the end of the first half.
The second almost came after a beautiful pass from Vitor Roque to Estêvão.
Vitor Roque almost there
It wasn't this time that the most expensive reinforcement in Palmeiras' history scored his goal.
Vitor Roque even scored. But the VAR indicated offside after he was called by Felipe Anderson.
Cerro tried. But it was up to Abel's team to have more concrete goal opportunities.
But without taking advantage of them. Flaco López, for example, had two.
📊 Table and schedule 📅
Palmeiras reaches six points. Bolívar and Cerro have three. Sporting Cristal remains at zero.
Verdão will only play in the Liberta again on the 24th of this month, when they will face the altitude of La Paz and Bolívar.
Cerro will host Cristal on the same day.
On Saturday (12), Verdão will face the derby against Corinthians at Arena Barueri.

Mexico and Costa Rica, with their pass already secured to the quarterfinals of the Gold Cup, faced off tonight at Allegiant Stadium to finish the group stage. In a duel previously considered a "Classic", both teams gave us a goalless draw tonight, but with plenty of action. Advertisement Stay and enjoy the three protagonists of the match: Keylor Navas Without a doubt, Miguel Herrera's greatest success was getting Keylor Navas back in goal for Costa Rica. The goalkeeper shone under the bar, stopped Mexico's attack, and finished the game without conceding a goal. Raúl Jiménez The Fulham striker was a major threat to the Costa Rican team, especially in the first half. The Mexican wants to break the record for most goals for the Mexican national team and today led several dangerous plays, but Navas denied them all. Santiago Giménez We're not talking about the AC Milan striker for his great game today, but because he starred in the play that could have decided the match. Giménez scored the winning goal with a scissors kick, but it was disallowed for offside. Advertisement This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

Gündogan has two goals, Haaland scores as Man City routs Al Ain 6-0 at the Club World Cup
Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — Ilkay Gundogan had a pair of goals, Erling Haaland scored on a penalty and Manchester City locked up its spot in the knockout round of the Club World Cup with a 6-0 rout of Al Ain on Sunday night. Claudio Echeverri, Oscar Bobb and Rayan Cherki also scored for City, which is trying to put an encouraging capper on a disappointing season. The English powerhouse finished third in the Premier League after four straight championships and went down to Real Madrid in the knockout playoff of the UEFA Champions League. With an entirely new lineup after a 2-0 win over Morocco's Wydad in the opening group game, Man City produced a dominating performance in Atlanta against an overmatched club from the United Arab Emirates. The time of possession was a staggering 74% in favor of the English side, which outshot Al Ain 21-5. Haaland buried the penalty for his 32nd goal of the season across all competitions after a video review found that Rami Rabia took down City's Manuel Akanji in the area on a corner kick. Cherki, one of City's high-profile signings, scored his first goal for his new club in the waning minutes. The expected result sent Man City and Italian club Juventus (both 2-0-0) to the Round of 16 from Group G. Al Ain has been blown out twice, losing 5-0 to Juventus in its opener. Manchester City is the reigning club champion, winning the title in 2023 under the former seven-team format. Key moment After Gündogan flicked in an early goal over the head of keeper Khalid Eisa, Echeverri assured this would be an easy night for City in the 27th minute. With a free kick from just outside the area, he curled a shot over the wall that left Eisa frozen on one knee while the ball ripped the back of the net. Takeaways Man City will face Juventus on Thursday in Orlando to determine which team claims the top spot in the group. Then the real work begins for both clubs. ___ AP soccer:
