Intro:

Goals from Diego Rosa and William put Ponte Preta at the top of the Paulista as they beat Penapolense 2-0 on Saturday in Campinas, Brazil.

Script:

It was second versus third in the Paulista with just Santos ahead of these two sides going into the game.

Home side Ponte Preta were put under some early pressure by third-placed Penapolense.

The first half passed with few chances though.

And it took until the 62nd minute for William to head home a looping free-kick.

It was the 29-year-old's third of the season.

Then a neat one-two between two substitutes in the 78th minute made it 2-0 to Ponte Preta.

Diego Rosa linking up with Alemao to score.

The win takes Ponte Preta ahead of Santos at the top of the Paulista.

Sao Paulo play Santos on Sunday.
