Santos and Sport take a break with 5 rounds left and move closer to promotion

Seven points ahead of the fifth-placed team, a lead that has never been overturned in the history of Brazilian Championship Serie B.

Santos and Sport take a break with 5 rounds left and move closer to promotion.

A matter of time. After winning their matches in the 33rd round, Santos and Sport reached 59 points, opening a seven-point gap over Vila Nova, the first team outside the promotion zone, and are very close to securing their spots. This is because such a lead has never been overturned in the history of Brazil’s second division. Stay updated with the best football results on ai live scores.

To reach this total, the São Paulo team defeated Ceará 1-0 at Vila Belmiro, while the team from Pernambuco thrashed Guarani 4-0 in front of their fans at Ilha do Retiro. Vila Nova, in fifth place, did their part by beating Amazonas 1-0.

Since Serie B adopted its current format in 2006, only eight times has a team outside the G-4, five rounds from the end, managed to achieve promotion in the end. The largest comeback occurred in 2013, when Figueirense overturned a four-point deficit.

Another statistic that reinforces the optimism of both Santos and Sport fans is the fact that only once in history has the team leading after the 33rd round failed to secure promotion. Interestingly, this embarrassment belongs to Sport itself in the past, when they lost three matches, drew one, and won only one of the remaining five.
