The ‘Timao’, with a brace from Roger Guedes, beat Fluminense (2-0) and added his first victory with Luxembourg
Botafogo extended its advantage as leader: it defeated América Mineiro (2-0) and opened five points in relation to Palmeiras
There is life and hope in Vanderlei Luxemburgó’s Corinthians who achieved a victory of great merit against Fluminense, one of the teams that plays the best in Brazil. ‘Timao’ won 2-0, with two goals from ROger Guedesand left the relegation zone.
It was the first win with ‘Luxa’ in their eighth meeting since they returned, for the third time, to Parque Sao Jorge. Corinthians, who are navigating very turbulent waters, had not won since the opening day when they had beaten Cruzeiro (2-1).
The next day has a key match to confirm his reactionwhen they will visit, in Belo Horizonte, the stronghold of América Mineiro, which is the penultimate with only four points in eight rounds.
The best
A Botafogo, who beat América Mineiro 2-0, and opened a five-point lead over Palmeiras, who could only pick up one point (1-1) in his visit to At. Mineiro, from Eduardo Coudet, in a duel between two of the roosters of Brazilian soccer.
The ‘Fogao’, which adds 21 points out of a possible 24, has the second best campaign in the history of the Brasileirao at this point, only surpassed by Palmeiras, in 2019, which had added 22 points.
The next challenge for the Rio de Janeiro team is to overcome an adverse goal (3-2) against Ath at home. Paranaense, of Victor, Roquein the second leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil.
Very attentive to…
To Sao Paulo de Dorival Junior, who has placed third with 15 points and that this day he obtained an agonizing victory against Goiás (2-1) definitively turning the score around with a last goal from David in discount time.
Since Dorival replaced Rogerio Ceni and put out a burning locker room, the Tricolor Paulista already has eleven unbeaten matches between the Brasileirao, the Copa do Brasil and the Copa Sudamericana. It is a team that is going to more and has no ceiling for the joy of the ‘crooked’ Saopauline that appears en masse.
