The draw between Internacional and Santos kept Vasco in 13th place, but the reality has changed. Forget the Libertadores: the total focus is on avoiding relegation. After five consecutive defeats, ge outlined all the mathematical scenarios for Fernando Diniz's team.
The good news is that Vasco only depends on itself. To avoid relying on other results, the team needs to earn five points in the last three rounds (two wins or one win and two draws).
Reaching 47 points, the Gigante da Colina is safe. Even if Santos (the first team in the Z4) wins all its matches and also reaches 47, it would not surpass Vasco in the number of victories criterion.
If Vasco earns four points or less, the calculator comes into play. With 46 points (4 earned), the team only falls if a catastrophic combination of victories by Santos, Fortaleza, and Vitória occurs.
The situation becomes critical if the team earns 3 points or less. In this case, staying up would directly depend on slip-ups by Santos and Fortaleza. The Cruz-Maltino faces Internacional and Mirassol at home, and finishes against Atlético-MG away.
