Internacional vs Bahia
Match Report
Bahia claimed a deserved 1-0 victory at the Beira-Rio on Sunday, condemning Internacional to yet another defeat in what is fast becoming a nightmare Serie A campaign. Willian José struck the only goal on 23 minutes after a dazzling individual run by Erick, who weaved past defenders in the box before squaring for the striker to finish past goalkeeper Sergio Rochet.
The hosts pushed for an equaliser but managed just two shots on target all afternoon, with Bahia's rearguard standing firm. Paulinho and Braian Aguirre picked up bookings for Internacional as frustration set in across the Beira-Rio.
The result leaves Internacional rooted in 19th place with a miserable two points from six matches — still without a single win this season. Bahia, meanwhile, extended their unbeaten start to the campaign and climbed into the top four, looking every bit like early title contenders.
