Vasco duo score over 10 goals in Brasileirão for first time in 14 years | OneFootball

Vasco has once again reached a milestone that hadn’t happened in over a decade. With the goal scored by Rayan in the 2-0 victory over Fortaleza, the striker reached 10 goals in the 2025 Brazilian Championship. The young player joins Vegetti, who has 12 goals, forming a duo of strikers with double-digit numbers in the competition — something the club hadn’t experienced since 2011.

In that season, Élton and Diego Souza finished the Brasileirão with 11 goals each and were fundamental in the campaign that led to the runner-up finish. Before that, and considering only the era of the points system, this feat had only happened in two other seasons:

Now, in 2025, the duo Vegetti and Rayan places Vasco back in this select group.

Rayan is living the best moment of his career

Under the command of Fernando Diniz, Rayan has become a leading figure. Since the coach’s arrival, the number 77 has scored 11 of the 14 goals he has this season, making him the player who has found the net the most for the club in this period.

At just 19 years old, the striker has narrowed the gap with Vegetti in Vasco’s overall top scorer ranking for the year. The Argentine, who leads with 24 goals, is going through a dry spell: it’s now seven matches without scoring and, against Fortaleza, he stayed on the bench and didn’t come on for the first time since the coach’s arrival.

In addition, the survey shows who were Vasco’s top scorers in each season since 2003, highlighting how rare this achievement is.

The rise of Rayan and the shared spotlight with Vegetti excite fans for the final stretch of the championship, especially in the fight for a spot in the Libertadores.
