Vasco return to training, start preparations to face Fortaleza | OneFootball

This Wednesday, at CT Moacyr Barbosa, Vasco began its preparation to face Fortaleza, in a match valid for the 28th round of the Brazilian Championship. The game kicks off next Wednesday at Castelão, starting at 9:30 PM (Brasília time).

Under the command of Fernando Diniz and his coaching staff, the Cruzmaltino squad participated in ball activities, while the goalkeepers underwent defense training.

Last Sunday, Vasco hosted Vitória at São Januário and won 4-3. With the victory, they reached 33 points, in 11th place on the table, and extended their unbeaten streak at home to five games (three wins and two draws).

The great offensive performance, combined with a series of victories that were not coming in the first round, marks the recovery phase of the Cruzmaltino in the competition. The team from Rio has the fourth-best campaign in the second round, behind only Palmeiras, Flamengo, and Cruzeiro.

If Vasco maintained this performance throughout the Brasileirão, they would have 47 points by now, instead of the 33 they have. The points they could have would be enough to place them within the G4, in the Libertadores qualification zone.
