Yesterday São Paulo lost away to Cruzeiro, playing abjectly. Even though the other teams fighting for the final Libertadores spot aren't doing that well either (e.g. Palmeiras and Santos have respectively lost and drawn against the bottom two teams) part of me would prefer the horror show to continue for a few games more in order to hasten the departure of Doriva (who happens to be our fourth manager this season). It is also annoying that Liverpool lost in a silly way to Palace at home, though at least they have something to look forward to. On the bright side, Chelsea and Real Madrid have lost as well...
