S\u00e3o Paulo took the field this Saturday (29) with two youth teams. The U-15 and U-17 sides returned to play at CFA Laudo Natel, in Cotia, and both won in the Paulista<\/a> Championship.<\/p>\n

The Tricolor<\/a> U-15 team beat Inter de Limeira 3-1 with goals from Luisinho, Yahgo, and Lucas Jorge. Right after that, the U-17 team won by the same scoreline, this time against Paulinense, with goals from Pedro Ruan, Jo\u00e3o Arthur<\/a>, and an own goal.<\/p>\n

U-15 win comfortably<\/p>\n

S\u00e3o Paulo started the match at full throttle and opened the scoring in the very first minute, after Luisinho converted a penalty. In the 18th minute, after a well-worked move, Lucas Jorge found Yahgo, who scored Tricolor\u2019s second. In the 28th minute, Ruann scored an own goal and cut S\u00e3o Paulo\u2019s lead. After the break, in the seventh minute, Lucas Jorge took advantage of a rebound from the defense and scored the third, sealing a 3-1 win for Tricolor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Rotated U-17 side<\/p>\n

The U-17 team applied pressure from the start and created good chances, but only opened the scoring in the 24th minute, when J\u00falio found Pedro Ruan, who fired a superb shot into the top corner. In the 28th minute, Hiago made a fine individual play, got past several defenders, and pulled it back. The opposing center-back deflected it into his own net, extending Tricolor\u2019s lead. In the 32nd minute, the opponent pulled one back.<\/p>\n

In the second half, the S\u00e3o Paulo<\/a> side kept dominating and creating good chances. In the 24th minute, they were finally rewarded when Mendes set up Jo\u00e3o Arthur<\/a> to score his first goal of the season.<\/p>\n

Tricolor fielded a B team, as the starters traveled that same day to C\u00f3rdoba, Spain, where they will compete in the FIFA Youth Club World Cup. Tricolor<\/a> will be chasing a third title, having won the 2007 and 2008 editions.<\/p>\n

The competition will be held from August 31 to September 9 and will bring together traditional European and South American clubs. Among the participants are Real Madrid, Real Sociedad, Betis, M\u00e1laga, and C\u00f3rdoba from Spain; Bayer Leverkusen from Germany; Wolverhampton from England; Dinamo Zagreb from Croatia; and Sporting from Portugal. Alongside S\u00e3o Paulo<\/a>, South American football will also be represented by Racing of Argentina and Athletico-PR.<\/p>\n

The Made in Cotia side is in Group 3 alongside Dinamo Zagreb, Sporting, and M\u00e1laga. Their opener will be this Monday (31) against the Croatian side at 2 p.m. (Bras\u00edlia time), in Villanueva de C\u00f3rdoba. On Wednesday, September 2, Tricolor<\/a> will face Sporting at 3 p.m. in Palma del R\u00edo. The group stage will wrap up on the 3rd against M\u00e1laga, at 3 p.m., in Cabra.<\/p>\n
