At MorumBIS with over 50,000 fans, Vasco HUMILIATED Santos this Sunday (17th) with a historic 6-0 thrashing in a match valid for the 20th round of the Brasileirão 2025.
In the first half, after Peixe started better, the Gigante da Colina opened the scoring when Nuno Moreira crossed from the right, and Lucas Piton (18') appeared at the far post like a center forward to head it in.
VAR was called to check if the ball had gone out of play at the start of the move, but the goal was validated.
Santos had a penalty awarded in their favor for a foul by Paulo Henrique on Guilherme, but after VAR review, the attacker was ruled offside in the play.
But after the break, the Vasco show began and the Santos nightmare unfolded.
In a span of 10 minutes, David (6') struck first-time in the area to extend the lead, Coutinho completed a deadly counterattack, Rayan converted a penalty, Coutinho (16') played a one-two with DVD and chipped in the fifth.
Without wasting time, six minutes later, Tchê Tchê played a one-two with David and also entered the area alone to chip in the sixth.
A large part of the Santos fans left MorumBIS en masse.
Those who stayed, after chanting "olé" in favor of Vasco and shouting "shameful team," turned their backs to the field.
The 6-0 is the biggest thrashing in the 98-year history of the matchup. Previously, each team had won 5-1 against the other.
Vasco had not won in the Brasileirão since June 12 (five rounds ago), when they beat São Paulo 3-1, also at MorumBIS.
Santos, on the other hand, had NEVER lost by more than four goals as hosts in the Brasileirão.
After the final whistle, Neymar cried copiously as he left the field in the arms of coach Fernando Dinz, the Vasco coach who had also coached him in the Brazilian National Team.
After the rout, Vasco reached 19 points and left the relegation zone, jumping to 16th place.
Santos, on the other hand, remained with 21 points and dropped to 15th place.
The Gigante da Colina returns to the field next Wednesday (20th), when they visit Juventude in a postponed match.
Meanwhile, Peixe visits Bahia on Sunday (24th) for the 21st round.
