The Choque-Rei was lukewarm, in general.
In the first half, especially, scoring chances were rare.
André Silva forced Weverton to make a save at the beginning of the classic, and Richard Ríos made a good individual play, but was unsuccessful in his attempt to chip Rafael.
In fact, what caught the most attention in the initial stage was a kite flying over Arena Barueri.
The Choque-Rei got a bit more exciting after the break.
Paulinho (6') unleashed a bomb for a good save by Rafael, and Ferreirinha (8') responded almost immediately, with a strong shot after a well-armed counter-attack. Weverton saved.

To not lose the habit, coach Abel Ferreira was expelled. The Portuguese coach got furious after Estêvão was pulled on the sideline, but the referee didn't give a foul.
Enzo Díaz (18') almost helped Palmeiras score an own goal, and Weverton prevented Oscar's goal (29') on the star's return after recovering from injury.
However, in stoppage time, Felipe Anderson shot from the entrance of the area, Rafael made a great save, but Vitor Roque picked up the rebound and scored.
The referee initially marked offside, but after VAR review, validated Tigrinho's third goal in the last three games.

Call for supporters' trusts to be recognised by law
A football supporters' trust leading a drive for fans to "play a meaningful part in decision making at their clubs" has been backed by a national campaign group. Fair Game has joined a coalition of 22 fan groups, led by Northampton Town Supporters Trust who are calling on the government to ensure "the unique status of trusts to be recognised and enshrined in law" as part of its Trusts First campaign. Niall Couper, chief executive of Fair Game, said the campaign was "about giving those communities a real voice in the game they love" The Department of Culture, Media and Sport has been approached for comment. The coalition of clubs, from all levels of the English game, intends to lobby government to "guarantee primacy for Trusts and other democratically-constituted supporter groups" in the forthcoming Football Governance Bill. The legislation, which is passing through parliament after being reintroduced by the Labour government in October, will hand power to a body independent from government and football authorities to oversee clubs in England's top five divisions. The Trusts First group includes supporters' trusts from Barnsley, Birmingham City, Blackburn Rovers, Bradford City, Doncaster Rovers, Exeter City, Fulham, Leicester City, Leyton Orient, Manchester United, Morecambe, Northampton Town, Plymouth Argyle, Reading, Scunthorpe United, Southend United, Swansea City, Swindon Town, Torquay United and Wolverhampton Wanderers. Mr Couper said: "It's time to ensure that meaningful fan engagement isn't just a slogan, but a reality." Andy Roberts, the chair of the Northampton Town Supporters' Trust, said: "The trust movement was founded in 1992, the year the Premier League was introduced, yet many fans up and down the country continue to be disenfranchised and marginalised by club owners pursuing their own vested interests. "We now have a clear opportunity to get all mandated supporter groups front and centre of fan engagement, not just those who are cherry picked by clubs to sit on their panels and boards. "We feel this should form part of the legislation and not be left to the discretion of the Independent Football Regulator." Fair Game said a meeting will be held with democratically-elected supporter groups next week to hear their concerns for the future of football first hand.

For rebuilding Nets, Giannis Antetokounmpo clarity could be a good thing
For the past week or two, league sources that spoke with The Post have said they don't expect Giannis Antetokounmpo to leave Milwaukee. The star has said as much himself, reportedly expressing a desire to stay with the Bucks. The Nets course has been charted: Tank Year 2. Advertisement The NBA rumor mill has been in overdrive, the mere hint that Antetokounmpo might become available sending teams — including the Nets — into a frenzy, calling the Bucks with prospective packages. But now, breaking his silence for the first time since Milwaukee's first-round playoff exit, Antetokounmpo has tried to quell the speculation. 'The Finals are different, I hope to be back soon with the Bucks,' Antetokounmpo told Coast to Coast Brasil. The story was picked up and translated from Portuguese by Eurohoops. And it will clearly be seismic all the way to the NBA, including prospective suitors like the Nets, Knicks, Raptors and Rockets.
