Ferroviária-SP thrashed Paysandu 4-0 at Fonte Luminosa, in Araraquara (SP), this Monday (17), in the 17th round of Série B, and jumped from ninth to fifth place. Goals from Vitor Barreto (2), Juninho, and Douglas Skilo put Locomotiva back in the qualification zone for the second phase.
The São Paulo side now has 27 points, the same total as Guarani-SP and Botafogo-PB, who are in fourth and third place, respectively. With the win, Ferroviária overtook Paysandu, who stayed on 26.
With two rounds left in the first phase and six points still up for grabs for each team, Série C is still far from knowing the eight teams qualified for the second phase. That is because the race for the G-8 is very tight. Volta Redonda-RJ, in 16th place, has 21 points, only four behind Ypiranga-RS, who are eighth with 25.
Ypiranga-RS, in fact, drew 2-2 with Guarani, also on Monday, after trailing 2-0. The deficit at Brinco de Ouro, in Campinas (SP), was built by Dudu and Maurício Antônio, but Pedro Lucas and Lucas Ramos leveled it for the team from Rio Grande do Sul.
