Peixe returned to wearing the number 10 shirt immortalized by the King, which was preserved during the campaign in the second division; With the defeat, coach Fábio Carille was harassed
Santos entered the field this Sunday (17) with guaranteed access and, as a bonus, already champion of Series B, after Novorizontino stumbled at home against Paysandu the previous day. In a festive atmosphere, the fans turned over the banners — which had been turned over in protest against relegation — and paid homage to Pelé, sealing the return of the number 10 shirt, preserved during the campaign in the second national division. The fans, however, were counting on a good black and white performance and were extremely frustrated with the 2-0 defeat to the team from Alagoas. Outraged, those present in Vila Belmiro asked Fábio Carille to leave and cursed the coach.
Peixe started sleepily and saw Facundo Labandeira open the scoring in the 16th minute, after receiving a free kick, dribbling past goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão and pushing it into an empty goal. In the rest of the first half, the Santos team had volume and created chances with Otero’s dead ball and in rare individual plays by Guilherme. Football, however, left something to be desired, which inflamed the fans. The village’s patience ran out once and for all when Otero left for the entrance to Laquintana. From then on, Carille began to be harassed at all times.
Santos’ second half was even worse than the first. And the water entered the title party once and for all when Kleiton increased CRB’s lead in the 19th minute. In a ball stretched forward, the black and white defense rebounded poorly and Anselmo Ramon managed to provide a header. Free, the red and white number 75 did not forgive. Under boos, Santos players timidly celebrate the title during the awards ceremony. Peixe is back in Série A, but is not expected to enter 2025 with the same team that ended 2024. Starting with the coaching staff.
