00:00Vasco loses to Palmeiras at Nubank Parque and remains in the relegation zone.
00:06Viverdi defeated Cruz Maltino 4-1 in a match where Vasco was superior to its opponent.
00:13first half,
00:14But in the second half, right at the beginning, in about 10 minutes, Vasco conceded 3 goals.
00:19One of them was a penalty, and the other was a beautiful shot from Flaco Lopes as well.
00:23He felt it with each goal the opponent scored, and in the end, within a few minutes, Vasco ended up losing the game.
00:29result.
00:30A draw away from home, while not necessarily a step up in the standings, would help the team avoid relegation.
00:35relegation zone
00:36Only a victory would suffice; on the other hand, it would be a good result considering it's against Palmeiras, who are leading the league.
00:42competition.
00:43So Vasco, in a way, due to a matter of inattention,
00:47Because they couldn't maintain the good first half performance they had in São Paulo, they ended up dropping another point.
00:56path.
00:57Vasco, in fact, had some opportunities to take the lead against Palmeiras.
01:00She had a very clear conversation with David, that he was hindering the situation because he was positioned incorrectly.
01:06And ended up missing the goal as well.
01:07Some shots from outside the penalty area.
01:09Vasco did have a good first half, but they were a team that couldn't find the net.
01:16And, most importantly, they didn't know how to reorganize after the opponent's goals.
01:21What happened in Paraguay against Olimpia, for example, didn't happen this Sunday against Palmeiras.
01:27Vasco conceded the first goal there, but managed to get back into the game and fought back.
01:31ironically, they also won 4-1 and qualified.
01:36Another interesting aspect of the game was the presence of businessman Marcos Faria Lamar.
01:40He is the one negotiating the purchase of Vasco's SAF (Sociedade Anônima Desportiva - Sports Limited Company
01:44And, before the match, he commented that he is only waiting for the courts to authorize the auction.
01:49so that the processes can take place.
01:51He will probably make that purchase of Vasco's SAF (Sociedade Anónima Desportiva - Sports Limited Company) if the auction takes place.
01:56It's quite likely that someone will match the offer.
01:58He would have the possibility of making a better offer.
02:01He would have that option, but it's quite likely that someone else will do it.
02:05And he said he's just waiting for the auction, in fact.
02:07so that he can finalize the purchase of Vasco's SAF (Sociedade Anónima Desportiva - Sports Limited Company).
02:10He said he was going to transform Vasco.
02:13That was an interesting point in that game between Vasco and Palmeiras as well.
02:17Vasco is in a complicated situation in the Brazilian Championship.
02:19It occupies last place with 22 points.
02:23A 3 to get out of the zone, at least initially.
02:25There are games in this round that could complicate the situation a bit more.
02:30Internacional is currently the first team outside the relegation zone.
02:32If Vasco were to win, they would narrowly relinquish their lead in the number of victories.
02:38which is one of the tie-breaking criteria.
02:40However, they will remain in the relegation zone for another round.
02:44Next weekend, they face Cruzeiro at home.
02:48In front of their home crowd.
02:49It's also a complicated game.
02:50Cruzeiro is one of the strongest veteran teams in Brazil right now.
02:53So much so that they beat Flamengo, the runner-up in Saturday's competition.
02:58But it's a complicated game.
02:59Playing in front of their home crowd, Vasco needs to start winning.
03:01If you want to think about its maintenance, its permanence,
03:05for the next season in Serie A.
03:07Meanwhile, there is also, in the middle of the week,
03:09an important game against Vitória,
03:10for the quarterfinals of the Brazilian Championship, at São Januário.
03:13I mean, probably São Januário, right?
03:15There's a whole legal battle going on at Vasco.
03:19Vasco did not go to court to request the right to play at the Maracanã.
03:21which was denied by the Flafu consortium, which manages the stadium.
03:25But at this point, the request is denied.
03:27Vasco could not play at the Maracanã.
03:29So, at this moment, initially, the game will be at São Januário.
03:33Something might change tomorrow or Tuesday.
03:37But it's difficult, even because of the deadline.
03:38So you can start selling tickets.
03:41Another important point for Vasco, which could be decisive,
03:44It's a matter of DIP loans.
03:46The loan is made to companies that are undergoing judicial reorganization.
03:51Vasco planned to bring in three or four reinforcements in this transfer window.
03:55even more so without that R$ 150 million loan, which was denied by the courts last week.
04:00The situation also becomes quite complicated.
04:02And if that loan doesn't happen, it's possible we can consider that Vasco might not strengthen their squad any further in this transfer window.
04:09despite the gaps.
04:11Vasco had a very close agreement with Diego Carlos.
04:13Obviously, he still needed to finalize his situation with Fenerbahce.
04:17Regarding the termination of his contract, it is the player's wish.
04:20The club also takes time when he's playing abroad.
04:23So, I was stuck in that situation.
04:24But, if that contract was terminated, he had everything settled with Vasco, he would be a player for Vasco.
04:29In midfield, Vasco is still considering the Deossa situation.
04:32a player who was very close to signing with Vasco,
04:35before eliminating him, which sidelined Pedrinho.
04:37However, given the situation, the player began to get an opportunity in Betis' pre-season.
04:43The coach there has a lot of clout.
04:46Pelegrini started saying that he would have more opportunities,
04:49I spoke with him and he chose to stay there for the time being.
04:55Last weekend, he was a substitute and came on at the very end of the match.
04:59in the team's debut in the Spanish Championship.
05:02But it's a case that Vasco is following closely.
05:05Because the Betis board of directors is also interesting,
05:07who has already accepted Vasco's offer,
05:10This player's life.
05:11But, again, it's a sale that could only happen.
05:13if, by chance, the loan were approved
05:16so that Vasco could invest in this player.
05:19In attack as well, the winger and the new center forward were targets.
05:23Vasco came close to signing Bruno Larch.
05:24But it ran into the issue of the loan.
05:27Vasco may have to rethink its stance in the transfer market.
05:30whether or not they will be able to bring in someone else to strengthen the team.
05:33These are the scenes from the next chapters.
05:35And you can follow everything right here on Lance.
