Vasco have been on an important streak of consecutive goalscoring. Adding the Brasileirão and the Copa do Brasil, Cruzmaltino have scored in 11 consecutive games. The effectiveness of the attack is crucial to the team’s good form, which is already in ninth place in the Brazilian Championship and in the semi-finals of the knockout stages.
During this period, Vasco scored against Atlético-GO (twice), Athletico-PR (three times), Bragantino, Fluminense, Criciúma, Vitória and Flamengo. Of these, they only lost to Furacão, in the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil. Even so, they managed to qualify on penalties. In that order, Vasco scored 15 goals and conceded ten.
But more than just scoring goals, the team has also shown great strength in reaction. In the last seven games, the team has been behind, but has always managed to react and score to avoid defeat. And striker Vegetti, with four goals, is the top scorer in the reactive moments of Vasco’s offensive efficiency.
This Sunday (22), Vasco returns to the field to face Palmeiras, in Brasília, in the 27th round of the Brasileirão. The match at Mané Garrincha will be broadcast by Super Tupi Radio.
