Overview
- Vasco, which rallied Saturday at São Januário, erased Luciano’s early strike after a VAR handball review set up a Puma Rodríguez penalty before Andrés Gómez fired the winner.
- The result ended a five-match winless run for Renato Gaúcho’s team and lifted Vasco to 16 points and provisionally ninth, while São Paulo dropped to fourth with 20.
- Cruzeiro defeated Grêmio 2-0 to climb to 16th, the first spot outside relegation, with second‑half goals from Christian and Lucas Romero.
- Botafogo rolled past Chapecoense 4-1 in Chapecó after early goals from Edenílson and Matheus Martins put the game out of reach.
- Vitória and Corinthians drew 0-0 in Salvador in a low-quality match that produced only one shot on target, as Sporting’s handball side advanced to the Taça de Portugal final and remains in contention on all fronts.
