Brasileirão: Round 10
Fluminense 4-0 Bahia
Fluminense still remain unbeaten in the Campeonato Brasileiro after thrashing Bahia 4-0 in Rio de Janeiro.
Former Lyon striker Fred opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 48th minute and Thiago Neves added a second goal seventeen minutes later.
Fred converted another spot-kick in the 74th minute before second-half substitute Wallace found the target three minutes from time to ensure all the points were going to Fluminense.
The result means the Tricolor Carioca remain in third place, three points behind league leaders Atlético Mineiro, while Bahia drop down one position from eighteenth to nineteenth.
Atlético Goianiense 3-2 Figueirense
Atlético Goianiense finally registered their first win of the Brasileirao after beating Figueirense 3-2 in Goiania.
Caio opened the scoring for the visitors in the 23rd minute before Marcio equalised fifteen minutes later.
Atletico took the lead just in the 58th minute courtesy of Felipe’s strike, but four minutes later, Caio found the target again for Figueirense to make it 2-2.
However, with eight minutes on the clock, Joilson smashed home the winner from the edge of the area much to the delight of the home fans.
Atlético, however, still remain bottom of the league, while Figueirense continue to occupy seventeenth place.
