With one less player on the field, Fluminense defeated this Saturday of comeback to Bay 2-1 at the Maracana stadium and once again placed in the top three of the Brazilian Championship standings. With goals from Lelê and Gabriel Pirani, the Rio de Janeiro team provisionally rose to third position with 21 points, pending the other matches of matchday 12, which will be played on Sunday and in which Gremio and Flamengo threaten their new position.
Those led by Fernando Diniz allowed themselves to be unseated from the leadership weeks ago. Botafogo occupies that position with 27 points, 5 more than Palmeiras, which follows it in second position.
Fluminense began losing to Bahia with a goal from Vinicius Mingotti, who, almost immediately, suffered a foul by Nino, who ended up sent off. Fluminense’s comeback came in the second half with almost simultaneous goals from Lelê and Gabriel Pirini.
In another match of the day, Athletico Paranaense defeated Corithians 1-0 in a match in which Víctor Roque shone once again, the young revelation that FC Barcelona wants. The 18-year-old forward scored the goal that gave victory to the club from the city of Curitiba at minute 36 and narrowly rounded off the double ten minutes later, but the score was annulled by VAR.
An unexpected victory this Saturday was that of Fortaleza 2-1 over Atlético Mineiro. The day continues this Sunday with five games. The clash between the two vanguard teams, Botafogo and Palmeiras, stands out.
