Brazilian giants Sao Paulo have reached the Copa Sudamericana round of 16 after a 2-0 home win over domestic rivals Bahia. Sao Paulo held a two-goal lead from the first leg of their second-round tie, so the latest win over the Salvador-based side earned a 4-0 aggregate victory. Willian Jose came off the bench for Jadson in the 57th minute and only needed eight minutes on the pitch to put Ney Franco's Sao Paulo ahead. He stole the ball in midfield and ran forwards without facing a challenge before unleashing a long-range strike that left goalkeeper Marcelo Lomba with little chance. Four minutes later, Osvaldo took possession on the left, dribbled past Diones and passed to Maicon, who finished off the move and doubled the lead. Uruguayan giants Nacional or Ecuador's Liga de Loja await Sao Paulo in the last 16. Jadson told Globoesporte.com: "We have played a great game and clinched a very nice win. It was a very good game by Sao Paulo." FIFA
