The Brazilian star clings to his last hope

Cruzeiro’s trophy-clinching victory over arch-rivals Atletico Mineiro descended into chaos as ugly in-game scenes saw players and coaching staff from both teams caught up in an unsightly scuffle. The fuse was lit during second-half stoppage-time, following a coming together between Everson and Christian, with a mass brawl breaking out that saw kicks and punches thrown.

Brazilian icon Hulk produced one of the goals of the season as he unleashed an outrageous long-range free-kick for Atletico Mineiro against Vasco da Gama, instantly sparking Puskas Award conversations. The veteran forward launched a trademark rocket from distance to help fire his side towards a dominant 5-0 victory and cap off their Brasileirao campaign in spectacular fashion.

Drama erupted inside the opening 30 seconds of the Copa Libertadores final after Botafogo's Gregore was sent off for a horror challenge.
