📹 Palmeiras end drought, beat Grêmio for third win running | OneFootball

At Allianz Parque, Palmeiras defeated Grêmio 1 x 0, this Saturday (26), for the 17th round of the Brasileirão 2025.

The goal that secured the green and white victory was scored by Facundo Torres, just three minutes into the game, after a good exchange of passes.

With this, Palmeiras ended an annoying drought: since May 28, 2025, Verdão had not finished the first half with the advantage on the scoreboard.

And this happened thanks to Weverton. The Palmeiras goalkeeper made a great save on Pavón's shot.

In the second half, the pace dropped, offensive plays were rarer, but Palmeiras controlled the game well.

🚦 How it stands

With the result, Palmeiras "engaged" the third consecutive victory. Before, it beat Fluminense (2 x 1) and Atlético-MG (3 x 2).

Thus, in third position, Verdão reached 32 points and stuck to the leader Cruzeiro (34 points) and the vice Flamengo (33 points). Both, however, still play in the round.

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

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

The Tricolor Gaúcho, out of the national tournament, will play on Tuesday (29), when it receives Fortaleza, at Arena, in a delayed match from the 14th round of the Brasileirão.

For the national championship, Palmeiras returns to play on Sunday (3), when it visits Vitória, at Barradão, for the 18th round. And Grêmio visits Fluminense, at Maracanã, on Saturday (2).
