League leaders Palmeiras beat Bragantino this Wednesday (15) and secured their fourth consecutive victory in the Brasileirão.

The team from Bragança Paulista opened the scoring, but saw the home side respond and win 5–1 at Allianz Parque.

In the Brasileirão, Palmeiras have won their last five home matches by at least three goals.

Additionally, this was the 8th time this season that Verdão won a match after going behind.

This Wednesday, Vitor Roque stood out once again, scoring twice.

Bruno Fuchs, Felipe Anderson, and Flaco López (one day after playing for the Argentina national team) also found the net.

Jhon Jhon, a former Palmeiras player, scored a penalty for Bragantino.


Bragantino opened the scoring with a penalty awarded after a VAR intervention.

From a set piece, Thiago Borbas’s header hit Bruno Fuchs’s arm.

Raised at Palmeiras, Jhon Jhon took the kick and applied the “ex’s law,” making it 1–0.

Palmeiras responded and equalized with another set-piece play, with Bruno Fuchs redeeming himself.

Maurício swung the ball into the box and the center-back glanced it into the net, scoring for the second match in a row.

Like the equalizer, the comeback goal originated from a corner.

After Bragantino initially cleared the ball from the area, it fell to Murilo to finish. 

His shot deflected and sat up perfectly for Vitor Roque to hit first time and score.

The move for Palmeiras’ third goal started with Weverton, featured a beautiful dribble from Allan, and was finished off with a fine strike by Felipe Anderson (see below):
