Vasco slip to 18th as Mirassol win deepens Z4 trouble | OneFootball

Vasco’s survival fight worsened after Wednesday 29’s fixtures, the club slipping from 17th to 18th in the Campeonato Brasileiro and remaining trapped in the Z4.

According to PaponaColina, the round’s key result came in São Paulo. Mirassol then beat Remo 2-1 at home, a result that lifted the São Paulo side and pushed the Rio club into deeper trouble.

Vasco have 21 points from 20 games, with a record of five wins, six draws and nine defeats. Their return sits at 35 percent and a goal difference of minus eight adds pressure on the coaching staff in the coming weeks.

The Gigante da Colina currently share the bottom four with Grêmio, Remo and Chapecoense. The gap to safety is one point, with Internacional on 22 the first team outside the drop zone.

Inside the club and among market analysts, the view is that a response must be immediate to avoid drifting further from safety. With one game in hand on some direct rivals, the focus turns to stringing wins together once the fixture list resumes.
