They massively overperformed in the first half of the season and built a nice 15-point lead, but their coach left to SA in July. Then they appointed Bruno Lage, who started off well but wasn't very well liked by the squad, I guess, because I'm pretty sure they were dropping points on purpose at the end of his run to get him fired.
Then they appointed an assistant at the club, a direct request from the players. Form dropped and then recently they massively fucked up the last bit of lead they had by losing a hugely important game to Palmeiras 4x3 after leading 3x0 and even having the chance to make it 4x1 with a penalty kick. Then just a week later they did it again by fucking up a 3x1 lead and losing 4x3 again, this time against Grêmio, another direct competitor to the title.
Their mental has to be in the mud now and I don't see them coming back to the race, they're fucked.
13-point lead.
