Brasileirão results reshape top-four and relegation races
Cruzeiro moved into the top four as six Matchweek 29 games brought wins for teams seeking distance from the relegation zone.
Cruzeiro’s 2–0 win over São Paulo put the club into the top four as six matches opened Matchweek 29 of Brazil’s Brasileirão on Wednesday. The results also affected the contest for Libertadores places and the relegation battle, Yahoo Sports reported.
Internacional beat Corinthians 2–1, a result the report said lifted Internacional clear of the bottom four. It also linked the defeat to the dismissal of coach Fernando Diniz, though its account did not establish the circumstances or timing.
Vitória beat Chapecoense 4–0 and Vasco defeated Botafogo 2–1. Yahoo Sports said both clubs gained breathing room in the standings, without providing points totals or a full table.
The other two matches ended in 1–1 draws: Remo against Grêmio and Bragantino against Mirassol. Four further fixtures were listed for Thursday.
