“The easiest signature of my career.” Willian Machado and Mirassol agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

A falling-out at Mirassol
Alesson and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Mirassol promote Maestro from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Maestro has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Luís Figueiredo steps up from the Mirassol academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Luís Figueiredo has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Vasco da Gama take the points off Mirassol
Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Shaylon the difference as Mirassol beat Ceará
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Shaylon. 1‑0 against Ceará, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Neto Moura makes it 200

In brief
- Player ratings Nobody on the pitch touched Shaylon
- The dugout Diego Ribeiro faces the questions
- The dugout Willian Machado knocks on the manager’s door
