Brazilian league: Sao Paulo held to draw; 'winless' run continues

Sao Paulo recorded their sixth consecutive Brazilian league game without a win on Saturday after being held 0-0 at home to Atletico Paranaense.

Both sides hit the woodwork but neither team were able to get the breakthrough.

Sao Paulo has taken just four points from a possible 18 during the winless run and is in fourth place, six points behind leaders Palmeiras, who play relegation-threatened Ceara on Sunday.

Atletico sits in eighth position in the Serie A table.
