Playing at home at the Cícero de Souza Marques Stadium, Red Bull Bragantino thrashed Vitória 4-0 this Wednesday, in a match for the 37th and penultimate round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. With the victory, the team from Bragança Paulista keeps dreaming of eighth place and a possible qualification for the Pre-Libertadores, while the team from Salvador returns to the relegation zone.
The win takes Bragantino to ninth place with 48 points. In the last round, at 4 p.m. (Brasília time) on Sunday, the team needs to beat Internacional and hope for a São Paulo loss against Vitória to move up to eighth place. In addition, either Fluminense or Cruzeiro must win the Copa do Brasil to open up the G8 in the Brasileirão, thus allowing Bragantino to compete in the Pre-Libertadores. Meanwhile, Vitória falls into the relegation zone, in 17th place, with 42 points.

Bragantino started the match at full throttle and scored two goals in quick succession. At six minutes into the first half, Jhon Jhon carried the ball down the left and, just ahead of midfield, sent a beautiful pass to Eduardo Sasha, who controlled it inside the box and gave a gentle touch to take it past goalkeeper Thiago Couto and open the scoring.
Two minutes later, Pitta received the ball at the far post and headed it across the six-yard box for Sasha to tap in once again. At 17 minutes, Erick had a chance to pull one back with a shot from the edge of the area, but the ball went just wide of Cleiton's post. After the missed opportunity, Bragantino took control of the match and had two good chances with Gabriel, at 29, and Jhon Jhon, at 46, but both shots were saved by Thiago Couto.
The scenario at the start of the first half repeated itself in the second, and the São Paulo side managed to extend their lead just six minutes in. Sasha received the ball in the middle and laid it off to Lucas Barbosa a few meters from the edge of the box. The forward then set himself and, with his left foot, shot low to score the team's third goal. At 20 minutes, Jhon Jhon received from Capixaba and fired at Thiago Couto, who made the save. On the rebound, Jhon Jhon himself scored the fourth goal for the team from São Paulo.
