📊 Brasileirão table: giants swap places in the Z-4 after Saturday | OneFootball

The weekend brings a full round in the Brasileirão and, this Saturday (26), five matches kicked off Matchday #17.

Were there a lot of draws? Yes, but excitement was not lacking!

For example, in the 1-1 draw between Botafogo and Corinthians at Estádio Nilton Santos, the Glorioso took the lead, played better, but Timão snatched a draw thanks to the "questioned" Memphis Depay.

The single point was enough for Corinthians to climb three spots in the table, at least until Sunday's matches, which will complete the round.

Meanwhile, in Recife, Sport took a 2-0 lead over Santos, had a man advantage, but ended up conceding a 2-2 draw in the final minutes.

Leão da Ilha thus remains winless in the Brasileirão, while Peixe managed to escape the relegation zone.

The other draw of the round was the 1-1 between Mirassol and Vitória. But don’t be fooled by the “modest” score. Both teams missed good chances…

Now, at Arena Castelão, Fortaleza beat RB Bragantino 3-1 and ended a streak of six rounds without a win, totaling 10 matches without knowing what three points felt like.

The result allowed Laion to move up a spot in the table, leaving second-to-last place to Juventude, who still have to play this round.

Finally, at home, Palmeiras beat Grêmio 1-0 and “shifted into third gear” in the Brasileirão.

With the new win, Verdão is now right behind leaders Cruzeiro and second-placed Flamengo.
