Vasco slip down the Brasileiro table, check the standings! | OneFootball

The 25th round of the Brazilian Championship ended with a very positive outcome for Vasco, consolidating their recovery in the competition. The 2-0 victory over Cruzeiro on Saturday even put the team momentarily in the top 10. However, with the results from Sunday and Monday’s matches, the club finished the round in 12th place, still with a very comfortable advantage over the relegation zone.

Vasco is in 12th place

With their second consecutive win in the championship, Vasco reached 30 points. The result allowed the Cruz-Maltino to overtake Corinthians and Ceará, who were ahead at the start of the round. However, the victories of Grêmio and Ceará in their respective matches caused the team to drop two positions between Sunday and Monday.

Distance from the Z4 is the largest of the year

The most important consequence of this good moment is the peace of mind in the fight against relegation. The gap to Juventude, who are in 17th place and open the Z4 with 22 points, is now eight points. This is by far the biggest “cushion” that Vasco has managed to build throughout the competition.

The positive streak, with solid performances and wins over teams at the top of the table (Bahia and Cruzeiro), shows that Fernando Diniz’s team has found its way. The focus, which was previously just on survival, can now turn towards seeking a spot in South American competitions.
