End of the round! Where do Vasco stand after Sunday's Brasileirão matches? | OneFootball

Vasco ended the 33rd round of the Brazilian Championship in a much worse situation than it started. The home defeat to Juventude on Saturday (8) was made worse by the results on Sunday (9). The team was overtaken and saw its dream of the Libertadores practically come to an end.

The drop to 10th place

The combination of results dropped the Gigante da Colina down the table. Vasco fell from 9th to 10th place, stuck at 42 points. The team was overtaken by Atlético-MG, who beat Sport 4-2 and jumped to 43 points, taking 9th place.

The situation for the Cruz-Maltino is now a multiple tie. Bragantino (11th) beat São Paulo (1-0), Ceará (12th) beat Corinthians (1-0), and both also reached 42 points. Vasco is ahead only due to tiebreaker criteria.

Is Vasco's dream of the Libertadores over?

The G7, which once seemed a difficult but achievable goal, has become a very distant reality. Fluminense (7th) drew with Cruzeiro (0-0) and reached 51 points. Botafogo (6th) also drew with Vitória (0-0) and went to 52 points.

The gap between Vasco (42) and the Libertadores qualifying zone (51) has increased to nine points. With only five games left (15 points up for grabs), qualifying for the continental tournament via the Brasileirão is considered mathematically unlikely.
