Campeonato Paulista wrap: Perfect Corinthians

Corinthians kept up their perfect record in the Campeonato Paulista with a 1-0 win over Linense on Sunday.

Tite’s side joined Sao Paulo in having won all three matches this season with their slender victory, which came thanks to Emerson Sheik’s second-half goal.

The Qatari forward scored with just 11 minutes to play as Linense slumped to their first defeat of the campaign.

In other matches, Ronaldo bagged a first-half double for Guarani as they beat Ituano 2-0 while Alan Kardec’s 74th minute equaliser gave Santos a 1-1 draw at Paulista.

Fernando de Santana struck with eight minutes to play as Palmeiras snatched a 1-1 draw at Catanduvense and Ponte Preta made it two wins in a row with a 3-1 triumph at Mogi Mirim.
