Besides the rout over Vasco, the new leader Botafogo saw most of his rivals in the fight for access stumbled and, with that, the vacancy in Serie A can come as early as Thursday. This Sunday, it was time to Guarani e CRB lose precious points in the fight to get up.
At the end of the 34th round, the CRB lost to the black Bridge 1-0 tonight, in Campinas, and stopped at 54 points, placing sixth, behind the rival CSA and at a point of Goiás, fourth place.
Earlier, Guarani drew 2-2 with the new village, in Goiânia, in a very controversial game in which the VAR did not work. Bugre could join the G-4 but, with 53 points, remained in seventh place, two points from the access zone.
In summary: of the top seven, only Botafogo and CSA won the round. Thus, Glorioso can get access mathematically as early as next Thursday, when he visits Ponte Preta at Moisés Lucarelli.
For access to come on Thursday in the quieter scenario, Botafogo will need to win and, at most, one of these three clubs will win: Goiás, CRB or CSA. They face, respectively, Coritiba (in Goiania), Londoner (in Maceio) and Hawaii (in Florianópolis).
Botafogo’s rise in the next round can even happen with a draw against Ponte Preta, but then the crowd would have to be for defeats by CRB and CSA and for Guarani to get a maximum draw with the already relegated Brazil-RS in Pelotas – what seems to be a more difficult combination of results to happen.
