Vasco’s numbers in the national tournament

The campaign reflects the great inconsistency shown on the pitch in this first half of the season. The team has 13 points from 11 matches played, with a record of three wins, four draws, and four painful defeats.

The goal difference is slightly negative at the moment, with 16 goals scored and 17 conceded. Coach Renato Gaúcho will need to work hard at the training ground to quickly improve the team’s current 39% success rate.
