With the three points won this Saturday at home, Rubro-Negro da Gávea reached a total of 17, the same score as Bragantino, who this Saturday drew 1-1 with Grêmio to stay in second place. However, the top of the standings could be retaken by Palmeiras, who, next Sunday (11), will play a classic with São Paulo at Arena Barueri.

The only goal of the match came just seven minutes into the first half, when Michael lifted the ball into the box, where Uruguayan Arrascaeta headed it perfectly past goalkeeper Marcos Felipe.
