Fifth and frustrated
Fifth place, 31 points, and a sour taste that won't go away. The Leão went down 2-1 to Vila Nova away from home, asleep for a whole half before Pedro Henrique dragged us back into it. Carpini already named the culprit for the first half of the season: slow starts cost this team dearly.
Botafogo-SP at home
On the 28th the Leão is back at the Pici to face Botafogo-SP, and there's no middle ground here: dropping points at home is exactly the kind of thing that haunts you in November. Nineteen rounds in, Fortaleza has to turn home advantage into something real. Teams chasing the top four don't stumble at home.
Fallout and transfers
Today was all about taking stock: Carpini picked apart the first half of the season and admitted the blackouts are costing us. Meanwhile Guto Ferreira is in the headlines, still hunting a win over the Tricolor after all this time. And the neighbors aren't sleeping — Ceará signed Nico Ferreira through 2027, while Gabriel Moura's name keeps popping up around here.
