São Caetano exits Copa Paulista after 12-0 aggregate loss to Primavera

São Caetano concluded its Copa Paulista campaign with a 12-0 aggregate loss to Primavera following a 7-0 defeat on Saturday. The team entered the second leg at a five-goal disadvantage and failed to narrow the margin. Striker Kauan Cunha accounted for five of Primavera's seven goals in the return leg, building on a previous hat-trick. São Caetano entered the tournament's play-in round after Santo André was docked ten points due to an ineligible lineup. The club’s season previously included a semifinal exit in Série A4 of the Campeonato Paulista, where the team failed to secure promotion to A3. This loss marks the end of a difficult year for the former Copa Libertadores finalist, which has not participated in the top flight of the Brazilian Championship since 2006.
