Recently signed by Santos, the forward Moisés needed only two matches to score his first goal wearing the Peixe jersey. Starting against Velo Clube, the 29-year-old player scored the second goal for the Alvinegro Praiano in the 6-0 victory and stood out with an excellent performance.

Last Sunday, besides the goal he scored, Moisés contributed significantly offensively: the forward provided four key passes, had 41 actions with the ball, and recovered the ball seven times.

Tight Competition in the Attack

The good performances against Athletico-PR and Velo Clube might earn Moisés a different status with coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda. For the position, the Argentine coach has Rony, Lautaro Díaz, and Thaciano, who has been playing more advanced.

Still against Velo Clube, Rony replaced Moisés at the 31st minute of the second half. The number 11 did not fall behind and managed to provide an assist for Rollheiser's goal, the last in the 6-0 rout.

Moisés and Rony will be options for Vojvoda this Sunday in the decisive match against Novorizontino for the quarter-finals of the Paulistão. The match is at 4 PM (Brasília time), at Estádio Doutor Jorge Ismael de Biasi.
