São Paulo Sub‑20 and Sub‑23 youth leagues see unbeaten runs and key victories

In the Campeonato Paulista Sub‑20 round on 12 June, four clubs—Ferroviária, Juventus, Santos and Desportivo Brasil—maintained perfect records, keeping them at the top of their respective groups and positioning them as strong title contenders. At the same time, Guarani secured a crucial win over Flamengo, reshuffling the group standings and intensifying the battle for qualification spots.

In the Campeonato Paulista Sub‑23 Segunda Divisão, América defeated Santa Fé 3‑1 on 12 June at the Evandro de Paula stadium. The win kept América level on points with group leaders José Bonifácio and locked the team into second place with a guaranteed round‑of‑16 spot. Santa Fé, despite a brief equaliser, remain at the bottom of the table with no realistic chance of advancing, compounded by two red‑cards early in the match. Gabriel Vitor scored twice for América, and Antônio added a late goal to seal the result.
