The 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship came to an end on Monday night, and the situation of Vasco da Gama in the standings remained unchanged. The club stayed in 15th place, with 23 points earned. However, the 2-2 draw with Ceará at São Januário prevented the team from distancing itself from the relegation zone.
The point earned on Sunday was crucial to keep the team out of the Z4. However, the feeling was that two points were wasted, especially for having conceded the draw in stoppage time and with one more player. The victory would have taken the team to 25 points, creating a larger gap.
With the end of the round, the fight against relegation continues to be fierce. Vasco is just one point away from Vitória, which opens the relegation zone in 17th position, with 22 points. The Bahian team was defeated by Fortaleza in the round.
The round was concluded with Cruzeiro's 2-1 victory over Bahia. The result did not directly affect Vasco's position, which remains in 15th place, behind Grêmio (14th, with 25 points) and ahead of Santos (16th, with 23 points, but with a worse goal difference). The team's next challenge in the Brasileirão will be on September 21, in the classic against Flamengo.
