Matchday 25 of the 2026 Brasileirão got underway this Saturday (29) with three matches.
With both teams involved in the Copa do Brasil quarter-finals, Atlético-MG and Vitória played an entertaining game in Belo Horizonte.
Galo took advantage of the red-and-black side’s defensive mistakes, won 2-1, and climbed the table.
Later, at MorumBIS, São Paulo ended a four-month winless run in the Brasileirão by beating RB Bragantino 2-1.
Coach Dorival Júnior had not beaten a Brazilian team in six months — including the final stretch of his time in charge of Corinthians.
Finally, Vasco ended an eight-game winless streak in the Brasileirão (since the 1-0 win over Athletico-PR on May 10) by beating Cruzeiro 3-1 at São Januário.
After the 4-1 thrashing of Olimpia in the Copa Sudamericana and the 1-0 win over Vitória in the Copa do Brasil, this was the first time Gigante da Colina has taken all three points in a Brasileirão match under Portuguese coach Pedro Emanuel.
With both teams also involved in the Copa do Brasil quarter-finals, against Atlético-MG and Vitória, Raposa fielded a reserve side, while Cruz-Maltino went into the clash with an almost full-strength lineup.
The main change was Vasco moving not only out of second-to-last place, but out of the relegation zone itself.
Internacional "took over" Cruz-Maltino’s spot in the bottom four.
