São Bernardo draws 0-0 with Sport to claim provisional Série B lead

On Sunday 14 June 2026, São Bernardo FC hosted Sport at the Estádio 1º de Maio in São Bernardo do Campo. The match, the first encounter between the two clubs, ended in a 0‑0 draw. Early in the second half, São Bernardo defender Jemerson was shown a red card after a foul on Sport forward Chrystian Barletta. The referee initially awarded a penalty but reversed the decision following a VAR review.

With the extra‑man advantage, Sport increased its attacking volume but could not convert, thanks in part to goalkeeper Alex Alves' saves. Barletta later said, “We had chances but we weren’t happy with the goal; the important thing is to take points away from home.” The draw left São Bernardo on 25 points, moving them to provisional first place, while Sport remained third with 24 points, still within reach of the top spot.

Both clubs look ahead to their next fixtures – São Bernardo faces Juventude on 21 June, and Sport travels to face Atlético‑GO on 18 June – as the Série B race tightens.
