📊 New team in second without playing, more changes in the Brasileirão table
Matchday 11 of the 2026 Brasileirão kicked off this Saturday (11) with five matches.
There was a "bitter draw," a comeback win amid lots of confusion, a red card for a "taekwondo" kick, and much more.
In Belém, Pará, for example, Vasco even looked set to return to the "winning column," but Remo fought back for a 1-1 draw, extending Cruz-Maltino’s winless run this season to four matches.
Meanwhile, in Salvador, Vitória beat São Paulo 2-0 and moved onto the "front page" of the table.
The match, however, was marked by right-back Lucas Ramon’s "taekwondo strike" for Tricolor do Morumbi.
In the countryside of São Paulo state, Bahia came from behind to beat Mirassol 2-1. The game featured controversy, tense moments, outrage at the refereeing, and threats of walking off the pitch.
With Neymar back after serving a suspension, Santos beat Atlético-MG 1-0 at Vila Belmiro.
The result helped Peixe move further away from the relegation zone.
Finally, in an "atypical" Gre-Nal, since there was hardly any trouble at all, Inter and Grêmio played out a 0-0 draw.
