سانتوس مقابل ریمو

Santos eased their early-season nerves with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Remo at Vila Belmiro in round nine of the Brasileirão. Neymar produced a sublime lofted pass to release Thaciano, who controlled and fired low into the bottom corner on 40 minutes to break the deadlock. The hosts controlled possession throughout the second half before substitute Moisés, on for Barreal, sealed the points in the 82nd minute, finishing smartly after a neat ball from Guilherme Escobar. Remo, back in the top flight after 32 years away, remain stuck in 19th place and deep in the relegation zone after a fourth defeat in nine games. For Santos, the three points provide much-needed breathing room as they look to climb away from the bottom half of the table.
