🕯️ Vasco in bottom four: player cites something spiritual for poor run | OneFootball

Matchday 20 of the 2026 Brasileirão will only wrap up at the end of this Sunday (26), but the fact is that Vasco will remain in the relegation zone.

And a common "school of thought" among Vasco fans has apparently reached the squad: the spiritual issue!

After the 1-1 draw with Mirassol at São Januário last Saturday (25), Colombian forward Andrés Gómez admitted concern about the team’s mental and spiritual side.

"We’re going through a complicated situation. I think we need to work more on the mental side and even the spiritual side. It feels like we’re stuck on something. We create a lot of chances in practically every game, and the opponent gets one chance and scores. Anyway, that’s been happening both at home and away."

The "unusual" statement used to explain the team’s poor run stirred up social media.
