📹 Palmeiras end drought, beat Grêmio for third win on the trot | OneFootball

In the Allianz Parque, Palmeiras defeated Grêmio 1-0 on Saturday (26), in the 17th round of the 2025 Brasileirão.

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 ended the first half with the lead on the scoreboard.

And that 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" the third consecutive victory. Before, they beat Fluminense (2 x 1) and Atlético-MG (3 x 2).

Thus, in third place, Verdão reached 32 points and caught up with leader Cruzeiro (34 points) and vice-leader Flamengo (33 points). Both, however, still play in the round.

Grêmio, who reached the fourth round without a win, remained in 14th place with 17 points.

Palmeiras returns to the field next Wednesday (30), when they play the classic against Corinthians, at Neo Química Arena, in the first leg of the Copa do Brasil round of 16.

Tricolor Gaúcho, out of the national tournament, will play on Tuesday (29), when they host Fortaleza, at Arena, in a postponed match of the 14th round of the Brasileirão.
