Now there are only two Brasileirão rounds left before the break for the World Cup.
The 16th round ended this Sunday (17) with six matches being played.
The day began with Coritiba cruising past Santos in Itaquera, with Neymar right at the center of controversy.
In Salvador, Bahia were the better side. But they extended their poor run by drawing with Grêmio — who climbed out of the bottom four.
Playing at Niltão, Botafogo did not feel Danilo’s sudden absence and, in Barboza’s farewell, beat Corinthians — who are back in the relegation zone.
Remo also picked up a great result by beating Chapecoense in Santa Catarina.
Red Bull Bragantino also had reason to celebrate, moving firmly into the race for a spot in the top five.
And the lively draw between Athletico and Flamengo brought the round to a close.
