At home in the 13th round of the Brazilian Championship, Vasco da Gama beat Vitoria 1-0 on Sunday. The game's only goal came in the 23rd minute. After Max invaded the Vitoria defense, he crossed the ball to Ze Roberto who then slid to place the ball into the goal. 'I am very happy to be able to score my team's only goal in my debut at home. I am especially happy for having scored on Father's Day, making my goal quite special. However, we have lots of things to improve upon on the field,' said Ze Roberto. With the win, Vasco da Gama improves to 11th place with 17 points. In the 14th round of play, the team will travel to play Gremio Prudente on August 15. The loss drops Vitoria to 16th place with 14 points, which worries the club's administration, flirting with the possibility of dropping into the second division at the end of the full 38 rounds of play. In the next round of play, the team will travel to play Palmeiras on August 14.
