😅 Was it Pep’s Barça? Vasco thrash Coritiba to escape BR’s bottom four 🎥 Vasco are OUT of the Brasileirão 2026 relegation zone. With a great performance at Colina Histórica, the Cruz-Maltino side RAN RIOT over Coritiba on Saturday night (19). Colidio, Bruno Duarte, Lescano, Andrés Gómez and Ramon Rique secured a more than deserved 5-0 win in Matchday 28 of the competition. It was Vasco’s best result of the entire season. And the biggest rout in the history of this fixture. Vasco fully deserved it Pedro Emanuel’s team went into the break with a solid lead. They controlled the action from the start and got the opener thanks to the persistent Colidio (24'). Unable to threaten on the break, Coxa’s mission was to contain the opposition’s momentum. And they failed, as Bruno Duarte doubled the lead (44'). Rout in the second half Fernando Seabra — who had even been targeted by Vasco after Renato’s departure — made three changes for the second half. But he saw things go from bad to worse for his Coxa side early in the second half. Lescano was brought down in the box and converted the penalty himself (11'). Confirmation of the Cruz-Maltino rout came shortly after. Andrés Gómez was picked out by Saldivia and did the rest all by himself (18'). A brilliant goal. Without letting up against an opponent that could not keep hold of the ball, Vasco got their fifth through Ramon Rique (29'). There was also Robert Renan hitting the crossbar, Morisco making a save, and Bruno Duarte rattling the post. 📊 League table situation The Cruz-Maltino side moved onto 31 points after 27 matches. The postponed clash with Chapecoense still has no scheduled date. They moved above Grêmio (28 points), who will host Palmeiras this Sunday (20). The task now is to hope the team from Rio Grande do Sul slip up. Coxa, meanwhile, remain on 38 points. They are currently ninth. Both sides will only return to action after the international break. Vasco will have the derby against Botafogo at Nilton Santos (10/7). The Alviverde, meanwhile, will be away to Fluminense (10/8).
