Serie B: Vila Nova beaten by Brusque in a match ‘to forget’


Marreco asserted his dominance and beat the Goiás team 3-1 in the debut of coach Marcelo Cabo, who was hired after a stint at Floresta




The beginning of the Marcelo Cabo “era” has given indications that Brusque may have been right in choosing the name of the technical committee. Under the guidance of the coach for the first time, Marreco authoritatively beat Vila Nova this Saturday afternoon (14), 3-1, at the Estádio Dr. Hercílio Luz, in Itajaí, in the 26th round of the Série B of the Brasileirão.

The victory was of capital importance for Brusque’s goals in the Brasileirão B series. This is because they managed to gain a five-point advantage over Guarani, last in the tournament, and to get two points away from leaving the danger zone. CRB also has 26 points, but will take the field this Sunday (15) to face Sport, at the Arena Pernambuco, at 18:30.

On the other hand, the defeat could still cost Vila Nova dearly, who remained in G4 even after the setback. Tigrão remained in fourth place, with 42 points, but could be caught by Ceará in this round. This is because Vozão will face Chapecoense on Sunday (15), at 18:30, and, depending on the combination of results, could even take the Goiás team out of the ranking zone.

Abrupt official note

Moments before the start of the match, Brusque FC released a statement on the health status of Marcos Serrato. The club reported that the midfielder has maintained neurological symptoms following his head injury and will rest for the next seven days.

“Brusque FC reported that midfielder Marcos Serrato suffered a head injury a few rounds ago and has maintained neurological symptoms despite normal tests. The neurologist has recommended seven days of rest and medication,” the club announced.

The game

Brusque’s performance attracted attention in the victory over Vila Nova and, above all, the arrival of Marcelo Cabo seems exciting in the eyes of the fans. Of course, the excitement is also linked to the retrospective of the recent work of the coach, who saved Floresta from relegation to Série D even after a 97% probability of relegation.

Quadricolor took the lead almost simultaneously with the opening whistle of the match. After 37 seconds, Dentinho released his left foot and scored a lightning goal to open the scoring for Brusque. Vila Nova also tried to impose themselves on their opponent, but encountered difficulties in compactness, technique and tactics.

The second half followed almost the same script: Brusque scored at the start. Full-back Diego Mathias finished after Dénis Júnior’s exit, after four minutes, increasing the home team’s lead. After the goal, the Quadricolor naturally lowered the intensity and offered more space to Vila.

Needing a result, the Goiás team went on the attack and managed to reduce the lead in the 37th minute of the second half, with Elias. Vila was still celebrating when Brusque finally closed the game in the 40th minute, with Keké pushing the ball into Dénis Júnior’s net.
