Grêmio’s resurgence under Mano Menezes in the Brasileirão is in full swing. Playing at home, the team from Rio Grande do Sul beat São Paulo 2–0, with two goals from Carlos Vinicius. On the other hand, the Morumbi side is in terrible form, with just one win in their last seven matches of the year.

In Salvador, a very competitive match with three goals. From the penalty spot, Renato Kayzer opened the scoring in the first half for Vitória. However, before the break, Tiago leveled it. In the second half, Raul Cáceres scored the goal that killed the duel.

Finally, an almost embarrassment at the Maracanã. Fluminense scored in the 53rd minute of the second half, through Thiago Silva, to defeat the practically relegated Juventude. The crowd was already preparing the boos at the Sacred Temple, but the experienced defender ended up saving the rival.
