Palmeiras cruised into the Copa do Brasil round of 16 with a dominant 4-0 victory on Wednesday (13), sealing an emphatic 7-0 aggregate win after their 3-0 first-leg triumph. The Brazilian giants put on a clinical display in Londrina, with Felipe Anderson stealing the show in a first-half masterclass.

The former West Ham and Lazio star opened the floodgates with a goal and two assists before the break, setting the tone for a memorable night. His creative spark was on full display as he set up Maurício for the opener, then turned provider again for 19-year-old Erick Belé, who netted his first professional goal in style.

The second half saw another young talent shine, with 20-year-old Luighi converting from the penalty spot. It was a special moment for the forward, marking his first goal since January 10 against Portuguesa in Palmeiras' 2026 season opener.

The emphatic win showcases the depth of talent at Palmeiras, blending experienced stars like Anderson with emerging prospects who are making their mark on the big stage. For fans of the Verdão, it's an exciting glimpse of both the present and future as the club advances confidently in Brazil's premier knockout competition.
