Peidraria beat Venus 1-0 in the second round of the Serie B2 championship in the state of Pará on Thursday afternoon. The result gives the visitors their first victory of the campaign after three defeats earlier in the season.
By then Peidraria had collected just three points from four matches, a tally that sat them in third place despite the loss-heavy run. Venus meanwhile held on to a solitary point from their opener, a draw against ESMAK, and moved into fourth position.
And here's the thing — the away side's recent form had been thoroughly unconvincing. They had lost heavily to Paracambiense, dropped points against Belenenses, and only managed victories against União Paracambiense and Amazonas in the fixture list provided.
To be fair, Venus carried an unbeaten record into this fixture but had yet to find the back of the net in all their previous results. Their only positive was avoiding defeat in the opening round against ESMAK on 5 September.
The match itself produced no further details beyond the final scoreline. No goalscorer was recorded, no substitutions noted, and no statistical breakdowns were available for either side.
What matters now is the psychological shift. Peidraria have ended a winless run that stretched back to August, while Venus remain without a victory despite not losing their opening match.
The table tells the story simply enough. Peidraria sit on three points from four games, Venus on one from one. Both teams have plenty of ground to make up in this division.
