Cruzeiro 0-2 PalmeirasAnd now they're struggling in S|-rie B as well? What's happening there?
...this result sent their dreaded rivals to Serie B 2020. Not many people saw
this one coming a priori, seeing as Cruzeiro has one of the most expensive squads in Brasil nowadays. But they were beset by several internal Problems and the pressure in the final rounds mounted to too much for them. Yet another
team that can no longer claim that "time grande n|uo cai" :-) (it means "big clubs don't drop", which is the way that supporters of clubs that were never relegated tease their rivals).

They've started with -6 points due to one of their debts and are not exactly well organized yet. This could be a long struggle.

Scolari to the rescue!So far it's been working. Three wins and a draw since, if I counted correctly. They'll probably escape the ignominy of dropping to Serie C. A promotion push, though, still seems rather unlikely, even if there's still 18 rounds to go.
