Red Bull Bragantino defeats Santos 2-1 in Brasileirão
Red Bull Bragantino defeated Santos 2-1 at the Estádio Cícero de Souza Marques in Bragança Paulista during the 34th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. The victory allows Bragantino to move into eighth place in the standings, tied with Santos at 47 points but holding an advantage in total wins.
The match featured an unusual start when Santos defender Rodinei scored an own goal in the third minute. Santos responded in the 36th minute with a goal from Philippe Coutinho, who scored after a combination with Gabigol. However, Bragantino regained the lead in the 40th minute when Wallace Yan scored a header following a cross from Henry Mosquera.
Despite pressure from Santos in the second half, including a disallowed goal for Everton Cebolinha and a penalty appeal for Rony, Bragantino maintained their lead. The result marks a significant moment for Bragantino, ending a streak of failing to win consecutive matches since May, while Santos enters its third match without a victory.
