Paulo Henrique shines for Vasco, takes centre stage in the Brasileirão | OneFootball

Vasco practically eliminated the risk of relegation in the Brazilian Championship with a 5-1 victory over Internacional. However, much of this is due to the participation of some players. One of the highlights is right-back Paulo Henrique.

Paulo Henrique is the leader in assists among defenders in this Brazilian Championship with a total of eight. He was also the main player in assists against Colorado in Friday's thrashing.

After the match, the player took to social media to celebrate the stellar performance. He posted: “A very important victory in our cauldron with the support of our fans. Also, the day my prince took the field with daddy! Grateful to God for the two assists! Let's go for more, this is Vasco! It is not I who live, but Christ lives in me! Glory to God,” he said.

In the Cup?

It is worth remembering that this year the player stood out so much that he began to be considered in the call-ups by the coach of the Brazilian National Team, Carlo Ancelotti. He has a great chance of playing in the 2026 World Cup.

With Paulo Henrique, Vasco returns to the field this Tuesday to face Mirassol, again at São Januário, at 7 PM (Brasília time), for the penultimate round of the Brazilian Championship. Fernando Diniz will decide the team in Monday's training session.
