This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇧🇷 here.
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.

Mets call up prized infield prospect Ronny Mauricio after Mark Vientos injury
Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) — Prized infield prospect Ronny Mauricio was called up from the minors by the New York Mets on Tuesday and put in the starting lineup at third base against the Los Angeles Dodgers. His promotion came after third baseman Mark Vientos strained his right hamstring late in Monday night's victory over the Dodgers. He went on the injured list Tuesday. Mauricio was slated to bat seventh. 'I'm feeling great,' he said in the Mets clubhouse before the game. 'I'm the same person I was before my surgeries.' Rated for years among the top 100 prospects in baseball and a jewel in the organization, Mauricio made his major league debut in September 2023 and batted .248 with two home runs, nine RBIs and seven stolen bases in 26 games that year. But months later, the switch-hitter tore a knee ligament playing winter ball in the Dominican Republic and missed the 2024 season while recovering from multiple operations. 'None of us wanted to rush that process," Mauricio said. 'There were some setbacks in my recovery. We just wanted to take it slower to make sure everything was right.' Mauricio said the year away was frustrating, but helped him in many ways. 'I was able to focus more on my body, my ability as a person. I was able to improve on my English as well," he said, explaining that he took online language classes. Finally healthy again, the 24-year-old Mauricio has played at three minor league levels this season as he finished rehabbing and began gaining regular game reps. He was reinstated from the injured list May 17 and optioned to Triple-A Syracuse. 'I think I'm the same hitter,' he said. 'The biggest difference is I now have more knowledge of the game.' Mauricio has been on a tear at the plate recently, hitting .515 with three homers, eight RBIs, four steals and a 1.382 OPS in 39 plate appearances over nine games at Syracuse. Vientos stumbled out of the batter's box on a 10th-inning groundout Monday night and fell to the turf. When he got up, he grabbed for his right hamstring. A natural shortstop, Mauricio has played several other positions in the minors and majors. He started 21 big league games at second base in 2023, and five at third. In other moves Tuesday, right-hander Frankie Montas was transferred to Triple-A Syracuse on a rehab assignment. Left-hander Brandon Waddell was recalled from Syracuse, while right-hander Max Kranick was optioned to Triple-A. ___ AP MLB: recommended
