Kahiser Lenis leads the rout of Goiás
3‑0, and Kahiser Lenis took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Atlético Goianiense tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Paulo Vitor keeps Atlético Goianiense in it on his own
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 8 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

A brace, and Kahiser Lenis takes the afternoon — 8.41
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Kahiser Lenis provided it, and the 8.41 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Age has not caught Guilherme Marques yet — 8.25
At 35 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.25 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Gui steps up from the Atlético Goianiense academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Gui 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.
