Wesley Costa scores twice — 8.34
Two goals and a mark of 8.34 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Natan Masiero in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Luverdense this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

8 goals as Luverdense and Ceilândia go for it
Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 8 goals between Luverdense and Ceilândia, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Luverdense promote Rodrygo Araujo from within

Éder Mendes steps up from the Luverdense academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Éder Mendes 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.
