Hernanes inspires Sao Paulo victory over Santos

Hernanes inspires Sao Paulo victory over SantosRio de Janeiro, Oct 29 (IANS) Former Juventus midfielder Hernanes set up his team's both goals as Sao Paulo defeated Santos 2-1 in their Brazilian Serie A football clash.

Marcos Guilherme opened the scoring for the hosts at the Pacaembu stadium by lashing a shot past goalkeeper Vanderlei after a Hernanes through ball on Saturday, reports Xinhua news agency.

Peru international midfielder Christian Cueva doubled the lead shortly with a neat finish after another Hernanes assist.

 

The visitors pulled a goal back when midfielder Alison blasted a long-range shot into the top corner.

Having battled to stay out of the relegation zone for most of the season, Sao Paulo could still secure a top-six place at the end of the season, a result that would secure the Tricolor a berth in next year's Copa Libertadores.
