Na Arena Castelão, nesta terça-feira (27), Ceará e Goiás fecham a 35ª rodada da Série B com um enredo curioso: os dois treinadores chegaram trocando de clube, estrearam justamente um contra o outro e agora voltam a se enfrentar.

Daniel Paulista deixou o Goiás para assumir o Ceará e estreou diante do próprio Alviverde, na 16ª rodada. Desde então são 19 partidas no comando do Alvinegro, com sete vitórias, cinco empates e sete derrotas — 45,6% de aproveitamento.

Antes dele, o Ceará era o 15º colocado, com 17 pontos em 15 jogos (quatro vitórias, cinco empates e seis derrotas, 37,8%), e vinha de derrota por 2 a 0 para o Juventude, fora de casa.

Hoje o time é o 16º, com 43 pontos em 34 jogos e 42,2% de aproveitamento — o primeiro fora do Z-4.

Do outro lado, Mozart fez o caminho inverso, saiu do Alvinegro e assumiu o Goiás, também estreando contra o Ceará na 16ª rodada. São 19 jogos, oito vitórias — uma delas sobre o próprio Ceará —, quatro empates e sete derrotas, 49,1% de aproveitamento.

Quando Mozart chegou, o Goiás era o 10º, com 21 pontos em 15 jogos e 46,7% (seis vitórias, três empates e seis derrotas). Segue em 10º, agora com 34 jogos, 14 vitórias, sete empates e 13 derrotas e 48% no geral.

A comparação responde à pergunta do torcedor. O Ceará melhorou o rendimento com Daniel Paulista, mas perdeu uma posição na tabela; o Goiás também evoluiu no aproveitamento e manteve o 10º lugar. Em ambos os casos, o desempenho subiu sem que a colocação acompanhasse.

O duelo desta terça-feira (27) opõe momentos distintos: o Ceará briga para escapar do Z-4, e o Goiás tenta se aproximar do G-6. A bola rola às 20h.
