Luciano delivers again, and São Paulo win again in the Brasileirão

At Brinco de Ouro da Princesa, in Campinas, São Paulo beat Mirassol 1-0 this Saturday (25), in the 13th round of the 2026 Brasileirão.

Tricolor Paulista controlled the action in the first half, although most of their 13 shots did not hit the target guarded by Walter.

Leão Caipira, in turn, threatened with a dangerous shot from Reinaldo and had a goal disallowed for Alesson’s offside.

Luciano and Artur were São Paulo’s main attacking threats, while Mirassol had a good chance through André Luis.

However, just as São Paulo fans were starting to worry, Wendell crossed from the byline onto Luciano’s head, bringing relief to São Paulo.

This was the fourth straight match in which the No. 10 scored for the MorumBIS Tricolor. Before Mirassol, the forward also found the net against Juventude (1-0), Vasco (1-2), and O'Higgins (2-0).

In addition, Luciano moved clear as São Paulo’s third-highest scorer in Brasileirão history with 66 goals, behind only Serginho Chulapa (83) and Luis Fabiano (108).

Rogério Ceni has 65 goals, followed by Careca (54 goals) and Müller (49 goals).
