Grêmio and Palmeiras put on a night of goal fests this Wednesday (4th), in the second round of the Brasileirão Betano 2026, showcasing their offensive power to Brazilian football. Together, they scored ten goals and thrilled their fans.

At the Grêmio Arena in Porto Alegre, Botafogo opened the scoring with Arthur Cabral against the home team, who equalized with Carlos Vinícius and then fell behind again after a goal from Danilo. In the second half, the night’s top scorer, Carlos Vinícius, scored twice more, completed his hat-trick, and put the Tricolor Gaúcho ahead 3-2. Tetê and Edenilson extended the lead, and Danilo pulled one back for the team from Rio at the end of the match, sealing the score at 5-3.

The Alviverde, meanwhile, defeated Vitória 5-1 at Arena Barueri in Barueri, with standout performances from Murilo and Gustavo Gómez, their goal-scoring defenders, who started the rout for Palmeiras—Maurício scored the third for Palmeiras still in the first half. After the break, Dudu reduced the deficit for Leão da Barra, and Allan and Ramón Sosa put the finishing touches on the match.
