The Colorado team has finally entered the top four (G4) of the Brasileirão. After a difficult start to the year, with an early exit in both the Copa do Brasil and Copa Sul-Americana, as well as losing the state championship and dealing with devastating floods in Rio Grande do Sul, the fans have much to celebrate.
Following the dismissal of Eduardo Coudet, Roger Machado was appointed with some skepticism due to his ties with their biggest rival, Grêmio. However, that doubt quickly turned into joy. With the win against Criciúma, Internacional extended their unbeaten streak to 13 matches, matching the record set in 2022 under Mano Menezes, who is now at Fluminense. This impressive run of results has pulled the team out of the relegation fight and into the G4 — though they may be overtaken by Flamengo by the end of the round.
The path to victory began with Alan Patrick, who is having another outstanding season with the team. Despite a high tempo of play, the home side struggled to break down their opponent’s defense. It was a well-executed free-kick by Patrick that opened the scoring.
The second half followed a similar script, with the second goal coming in injury time after an excellent individual play by Wesley. With the result, Internacional temporarily moves into fourth place in the Brasileirão with 56 points and still hopes for a direct spot in the 2025 Copa Libertadores. Criciúma, on the other hand, remains at risk of relegation with 37 points in 15th place. BB Score, your reliable source for football scores.
