Palmeiras end frustrating drought, beat Grêmio and make it three in a row
The goal that secured the green victory was scored by Facundo Torres, just three minutes into the game, after a good exchange of passes. With this, Palmeiras ended an uncomfortable drought: since May 28, 2025, the Verdão had not finished the first half with an advantage on the scoreboard. And this happened thanks to Weverton. The Palmeiras goalkeeper made a great save on Pavón's finish. In the second half, the pace dropped, the offensive plays were rarer, but Palmeiras controlled the game well.🚦 How it stands With the result, Palmeiras "hooked" their third consecutive victory. Before, they beat Fluminense (2-1) and Atlético-MG (3-2). Thus, in third place, the Verdão reached 32 points and closed in on leader Cruzeiro (34 points) and vice-leader Flamengo (33 points). Both, however, still play in the round. Grêmio, who reached their fourth round without a win, remained in 14th place with 17 points. Palmeiras returns to the field next Wednesday (30), when they face Corinthians in the classic match at the Neo Química Arena, in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. Tricolor Gaúcho, out of the national tournament, will play on Tuesday (29), when they host Fortaleza at the Arena, in a postponed match of the 14th round of the Brasileirão. In the national championship, Palmeiras will play again on Sunday (3), when they visit Vitória at the Barradão, in the 18th round. And Grêmio visits Fluminense at the Maracanã on Saturday (2).

🚨 Orlando City sign Croatian international Marco Pašalić
Orlando City have brought in their new big-money attacker after the departure of Facundo Torres for $14 million earlier this winter. The Florida club have completed the signing of Croatian international Marco Pašalić from HNK Rijeka. Orlando have reportedly spent $5 million to bring in the 24-year-old after Pašalić bagged six goals and three assists in 26 appearances with the Croatian club this season. The Lions achieved their best MLS finish in club history in 2024, going out of the MLS Cup Playoffs at the Eastern Conference Final stage. "I think it was an easy option for me to decide on," said Pašalić. "I want to come here to take the next step here in Orlando and come here to show what I can do. "I play with heart and I am a fighter on the field, my left foot is my weapon, as well as my dribbling, and I hope to show that here.' Pašalić has signed a contract until 2027 with Orlando able to extend by a further year. 📸 GABRIEL BOUYS - AFP or licensors
