Even with this setback, Timão maintains the leadership of the competition, with 18 points, but gives the chance for Palmeiras and Atlético-MG, who are still playing in the round, to take the first position. Galo will face Fluminense at Maracanã next Wednesday (8th) and Verdão will host Botafogo a day later. For Dourado, the victory represented the departure of Z4, reaching the 15th position with 11 points (the first team in the relegation zone is Ceará with ten points).
Cuiabá’s winning goal started with a failure by Corinthians’ defense. In the 35th minute of the first half, Uendel pressured Adson and scored with Felipe Marques before killing him in the chest and hitting left to score a beautiful goal.
Break!
