Santos score six for first time in seven years, relive the moment | OneFootball

Santos scored six goals in a single match again by defeating Velo Clube last Sunday, in the final round of the first phase of the Campeonato Paulista, securing their spot in the quarterfinals of the tournament. The team led by Pablo Vojvoda hadn't achieved a six-goal victory in seven years, since 2019.

On that occasion, Santos defeated Goiás 6-1, in a match during the 13th round of the Brazilian Championship that year. At the time, the team was coached by Jorge Sampaoli and had a strong campaign in the competition, finishing as runners-up. Behind Flamengo, which they also thrashed in the final round of the tournament, 4-0.

The rout, along with Neymar's debut in 2026, could become a turning point for Santos this season. Despite the victory in the first round, the club faced many difficulties at the start of the year, and Vojvoda is still looking for the right fit for the team.

So far, there have been 11 matches played in 2026 with three wins, four draws, and four losses, reflecting the team's inconsistency during games. With Neymar's reinforcement, Santos fans hope to see a stronger team with more creativity, which has been one of the team's biggest challenges.
